JayzVr 106 Posted August 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2015 (edited) Made a start on my vr this morning to change the manifold over to my stainless one after 5 hours, 2 broken studs, loads of smoking and swearing the bloody thing is on Edited August 2, 2015 by JayzVr Bealieboy and daveyboy 2 Link to post Share on other sites
c00k 435 Posted August 3, 2015 Report Share Posted August 3, 2015 (edited) I never seem to have to much trouble when working on my engine. I'd recommend 3 in 1 penetrant spray.Spray it on and leave for 5-10 mins. Also a set of special ratchet end designed for removing rusted or rounded bolts. Something abit like this. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=390351171705&globalID=EBAY-GB I've got a set abit like them and found them so useful. Most probs cheaper and easier than replacing studs, and using stud extractors. If the ratchet end don't work, blow torch the bastard! just make sure no pipes of wires are near, make heat shields if needed. Keep at it thou buddy, you will have it apart it no time, Welcome to grazed nuckels, and cut up hands hahaha. Edited August 3, 2015 by c00k JayzVr 1 Link to post Share on other sites
