Exhaust Donut
I have an exhaust donut to replace.Is there any tips for making one last?I actually got pretty lucky and the nuts turned right off the studs.I was really dreading having to pull the manifold and remove a broken stud.

Re: Exhaust Donut
they will go easy if your exhaust is bolted to something and not on a rubber hanger

Re: Exhaust Donut
Get a short piece of exhaust tubing that will fit snugly in side the donut. Cut it to the right length so it won't interfere with the compression of the donut.
