tools for cutting off fused= rusted exhaust bolts????


      Ed, a Dremel or Dremel replica with= fibre reinforced cut off wheel
tool works just great for the tight spot= s.  Get a few of the cut off wheels
as you will use them up quickly= .  An ordinary hand held grinder with a cut
off wheel works for tho= se bolts more accessible.  You may find that the part
of the bolt s= till remaining in the flange hole you need to use again may be
hardened = and difficult to drill out.  Use hardened drill bits for drilling
s= tainless steel to get these holes back in use.
