exhaust studs and oil cooler removal
#11
If you are going to heat the stud let it cool before trying to take it out, the ali will then be warm and the expansion of the stud will have squashed some of the corrosion holding it in and shrank back again.
I'd always heat the ali for removal.
One trick i've done before is drilling through a stud and welding the hole back up, allow to cool and the weld pulls the stud in on itself, weld a nut on the end and out it comes.
Save the planet...It's the only one with beer!
