I was installing my new header this evening when I ran into a road block. The bolt that is seized is the easy to reach up pipe bolt not the hard one to get off. That was easy with the right tool. Will wd-40 really work or do I need the liquid wrench? I tried using a breaker bar to give me some more leverage but it didn't want to move. I'd rather not have to cut the bolt and buy another one.

just cut it with a sawzall replace to .50 cent bolt

 

this is the side of the uppipe that has 2 bolts? I have 2 pairs from my aftermarket pipe but I reused my stock ones.

WD-40 soaked in, PB Blaster, or something that will crack it. If you are in san jose I can hook you up, or just go to the hardware store and get a grade 8 nut and bolt.

 

Thanks for the info. Yeah the side that connects to the stock exhaust manifold. I used the wd-40 and let it soak for an hour but it didn't budge. I cut it off just now and will swing by a hardware store tomorrow.

 

wanna sell me that sti up for cheap?

 

Sorry man. I didn't take off the up-pipe. I just put on a new header.

 

no worries worth a shot.

 

If the WD-40 didn't work you could always try putting some heat to it. Take a propane torch and heat the sucker up. Use your breaker bar and pop it off.
