hi all! I noticed last week a strange noise; which led to an exhaust leak right at the manifold.
Today I went to take the exhaust off, and even with days of PB Blaster, the nuts snapped at the exhaust studs. I the exhaust basically fell off the manifold. Looking in the exhaust hole, it almost looks like part of the exhaust is still rusted inside the cylinder.
Has anyone had to tap new studs before? And also, any insight on if that is part of the exhaust still in there or the gasket ring would be greatly helpful!
