<p>Well, Dean, while the tractor is sitting, let those nuts and
bolts soak with PB Blaster, Kroil or your favorite penetrant.
They will be a lot happier to come loose without breaking
then. Have fun with it and remember, as George Willer once
told me, "Time is your friend".<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Dean, can't
that spot be brazed to seal it? Nothing is as straight
forward when removing 70 year old nuts. I'd be inclined to
spray them with PB Blaster or something like it for a week
or so before trying it. Wouldn't hurt to get them cherry red
a few times as well. <br>

gentlemen! That same tractor, sitting in that same
spot, now needs some attention to fix an exhaust
leak. I went to use the tractor a few Saturdays ago,
and right after firing it up noticed this regular
tapping sound. For some time now I've been noticing
the exhaust pipe won't stay securely seated in the
manifold and I have to tighten it up now and then, and
every time I do so I worry the top of the manifold
will crack apart, so I suspected it had finally
cracked. I walked around and took a little video,
but didn't want to really get into it right then so I
shut the tractor down and used another one (the Ford
3600) instead. <br>
<br>
Yesterday I did a little more investigation, and found
at least one spot where the exhaust manifold gasket is
bad. A few video clips:<br>

<br>
I'm inclined to go ahead and replace the manifold,
since I've been worrying about it anyway, and at
minimum I have to replace the gasket. Seems like
it'd be pretty straightforward, just get the air
intake pipe out of the way, unbolt the old manifold,
replace the gasket, and put everything back together?
