Sounds good. My parts are on order locally and I think I'll
work on this before my pass. side front bushings. I'm going
to soak as much as I can of the applicable bolt threads in
PB Blaster today. Fortunately I had the header pipe
disconnected from the exhaust manifold a couple of years
ago.
Thanks for sharing your experience, JT.

No. I am using the same gas stations I usually use. They
haven't shifted. Last time I did get a winter mix, I didn't
notice a change in fuel mileage (using odometer
miles/gallons added to top off).

I think that all gasoline sold nationally now has to have an ethanol
content of 10% that replaces MBTE (sp?) that was declared "dangerous" by
the EPA.. There was a big fuss by the oil companies and refiners.

AFAIK, they basically just thread all the way (half way?) in, and thats
it. no torque necessary. when you attach the nut and washer, and torque
*that* it tightens the stud as well, or at least causes the stud to
become "elastic".

I suspect you're right. Just tighten until it bottoms, then stop.
I just checked several factory manuals here, and not one specifies a torque
figure for the studs.

Re: Exhaust Manifold Stud Replacement Questions [was Re: Mystery Nut--Anyone Identify?]
Elle,
I have 2 4 piece sets of these (the picture doesn't show the bottom) It has
3 cams that roll out and pinch the stud for removal and installation. It
sometime leaves small dimples in the stud but has never effected the
operation. Check Sears, Harbor freight. Saves tones of time on studs. (i.e.,
threading two nuts on, having them slip, re tighten, remove stud now try to
remove the nuts for the next go-around.

Re: Exhaust Manifold Stud Replacement Questions [was Re: Mystery Nut--Anyone Identify?]
Elle,
I have 2 4 piece sets of these (the picture doesn't show the bottom) It has
3 cams that roll out and pinch the stud for removal and installation. It
sometime leaves small dimples in the stud but has never effected the
operation. Check Sears, Harbor freight. Saves tones of time on studs. (i.e.,
threading two nuts on, having them slip, re tighten, remove stud now try to
remove the nuts for the next go-around.
