Hiya lads/ladies,

Any suggestions on how to get to the spring bolts from the manifold to the cat? I have very limited space and no access to ramps I can just about get to them, but it’s a right ball ache!
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Cheers Guys!

I’ve been using a jack
I am struggling the get any leverage on the little turds! I lost my temper with it and thought it was better if I asked for any suggestions :up:

I’ve soaked them yeah, but I’ve not tried again since. It’s such a crap angle, I thought I had them, but obviously not

Huh? Yeah the car drives, why’s that?
It doesn’t get moved for days at a time, as I have a work van

Working through the weekend dude, I have limited time. So it’s just easier to do stuff myself

 

[Carlos_2017]

Well, when I can actually do it
