Hi all,

I am planning on removing my exhaust manifold in a few weeks for replacement.

I am tempted to give one of the exhaust manifold nuts an experimental turn just to see if it will budge at all easily.

My questions are:

Is there any reason why I shouldn't touch them until I am ready to do the entire job?

Will this affect the lock nuts? etc.

As always thanks in advance!
