I have noticed a exhaust leak on my dual 44 2.0 motor, when I went to re-torque the bolts and found one of the studs on cylinder #2 would just spin and spin and spin...
Any suggestions on fixing this? Brian (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

If you’re careful you can fix it without dropping the engine.
Don’t over torque the others or you’ll be fixing them too. |

If it didn't fall out it might already be a step-stud...

I used 16 ft lbs for my exhaust manifold to head bolts.

Easy fix with car on jackstands (wear safety goggles). Make sure to anneal the new copper gaskets. It will make them much softer and easier to seal with less torque. |
