Easy fix for rusted header access tubes in 911 SC heat exchangers

[bkinghor]

If your heat exchangers are generally sound, but they have rusted header access tubes, then this idea might be an easy fix for you. I used an old tent pole to make new inserts, and I made a simple tool to flare them in place. As described here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzZsaIkWx-g

I must say you are very good at thinking through a problem and finding new and creative solutions. Between this and your headstud tool, you seem to be doing what many have claimed is impossible. Sometimes it just takes a fresh perspective. We never stop learning. Thank you for your addition. I’m sure many will find it helpful in the future. If you ever decide to make a run of extra stud extraction tools for people please keep me in mind.

Thanks for the kind words Rsnellie! I've asked about price for a batch of the nuttwisters to make a few stud extractors ... It would be good to hear of it working for some others!
