Re: Exhaust leak, any troubleshooting advice?
i pulled the sides off today, and found exactly what i hoped i wouldnt. The leak is coming from the exhaust housing to powerhead gasket. I normally wouldnt have any reservations about jumping right in except the eight bolts holding the housing to the head all appear to be corroded enough to where im sure at least one if not more will strip when i try to take them off. Does anyone have any suggestions for getting bolts like that out. I intend to use both heat and penetrating oil to try and loosen them up as best i can, but does anyone have any recommendations for getting stripped bolts out. Id rather get them out than hassle with drilling them out and rethreading the holes.
