Help - stuck removing cylinder heads
« on: 23 May 2009, 15:45:55 »
I cannot get the manifold downpipe nuts undone. And also cannot get to the manifold nuts on the heads.

I am halfway through stripping and I am stuck!

Give it loads of little taps with a spanner and a hammer constantly for a couple of minutes and then one almighty whack, worked for me

Patience is the key
