Cheers for the posts. For clarity the manifold was blowing a bit and the plan to nip the nuts up was to slacken off a touch, scoot with wd40 then nip up. When turning anticlockwise to loosen, the nuts rounded with almost no force at all. The central manifold nuts are very badly corroded. Due to the risk of shearing and coupled with the fact that I have to watch rugby and drink beer this weekend said bike will be visiting the local garage next Wednesday. "loosey lefty righty tighty". ?
