So I’m trying to get everything together to try and get the studs out my manifold and a few peeps mentioned plus gas having more luck than wd. Question is do I go for the aerosol or the oil tin? Ta
No help at all I'm afraid, but mine is in a tin. However I've had it for somewhere between 10-20 years & no recollection of where I purchased it back then. Amazon.?
Yeah I looked on amazon and it came up with both and I was only expecting the can so was then stumped on which to go for
Might be better with the tin version, they seem to never run empty, though I’ve never used one the aerosol might not be quite as effective with it having the propellant?
Could be right, I’m thinking if the aerosol is like wd, it may run from the area quite easily and the tin stuff may be thicker. I’ve tried a fk tonne of wd already so I think I’ll go with the tin and see what it’s like. I’ve got to order a few tools to drill and extract them so I’ll chuck it al in one order
You extracting the header studs? Used this one to do mine, was a piece of piss. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/111484331314
Just a normal socket, slow and steady with a bit of wd40. Amazingly didn't need heat, then obviously some proper stainless steel studs with cooper slip so the fuckers don't seize again.
Mine all snapped, which is why I used an extractor. In the end I used a small dremal with a cutting blade to take off the nut sides, exhaust off and loads for the extractor to grab onto. Good luck getting those little shits out.
I've heard that stuffs quite flammable, how much is that an issue using it on headers if you wipe it down thoroughly afterwards?
