Hey Folks


I will be working replacing my pushrod tins soon as part of the oil pressure gauge installation.


[ 1990 2.1]


i do not relish the idea of snapping off an exhaust bolt in my driveway.  


so are there some tricks for getting these  things off?    


WD40 for a week?  propane torch to the head before attempt?   dremel tool within reach?


Thanks in advance!
