MR49 20 #1 Posted September 8, 2012 Ha. Ha. Ha. The little things shat can slow you down. Ive been trying to get the exhaust of my 1075 for 3 days. Its rusted and pitted horrible. Some how it is seized to the jug. Ive been spraying some WD on it about twice every day, in hopes to break her loose. But nothing. Is there any tricks to getting an old pipe off the motor? I seem to be getting a lot of good advice from you guys, so ill just keep asking lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bowtiebutler956 650 #2 Posted September 8, 2012 First I'd trtry some PB blaster as it works much better than WD-40. I run into this often, and if the won't come out, I cut them off about 1/2 inch from the block, and then using a sawzall or similat tool, I cut two slots into the pipe. After this you can smack it with a hammer, and break it to loosen it up, and remove. This usually doesn't take more than 10 or 15 minutes.

Martin 2,131 #3 Posted September 8, 2012 dont even bother trying to loosen the pipe or undo it, if you damage the block or strip threads you will be sorry...... i just cut it off like matt does but then i collapse the pipe with a chisel.... the first post in this thread shows how i do it.... very easy and no risk of damaging the threads in the block.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
