How can the studs be in the way? Are the pipes still connected to the elbow? Tap the pipes and pull tem off the studs. Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Vanagon Mailing List [mailto:vanagon@gerry.vanagon.com] On Behalf Of tabe johnson Sent: Sunday, August 14, 2005 6:55 PM To: vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM Subject: Exhaust Manifold Removal I got one lonely reply to my exhaust removal question from the other day: I have the nuts off, but the studs on the heads are in the way so I can't get the exhaust manifolds off. The reply I have so far is to heat up the studs again & turn them off with a vise grip. Does anyone have any other suggestions besides pulling the studs? Thanks!
