Hi people,

My escort van exhaust has just spapped, broken off just before the first join, so only the manifold part needed I think?

Question is,how hard will it be to get the bolts fixing into the block out? Any tips and help, I don't want to take to a mechanic.

I have tourqe bar and socket set, only the jack that comes with the van, will this do?

Any help would be great fellas!

Cheers

they usually come off ok, dont even attempt to get under the van if all you have is the standard jack as you will probably die when the van falls on you

I know the exhaust has snapped, but run it so its hot, get riggers gloves on and take it off that way.
Hot metal comes apart much easier than cold rusted metal.
Just a suggestion mate.

cover every nut with WD40 and leave it over night

Am I right in thinking the manifold stays fixed to the block and the downpipe bolts to it.

So I only need the front section, down pipe which fixes to manifold?


Cheers
