I need to know the exact size of the nuts that thread onto the studs that connect the downpipe and the exhaust manifold. All three of mine have backed off, and now I have an exhaust leak. I need to know this as soon as possible so that I can have my dad pick up the nuts on the way home from work.

I was going to post this on turboD16.com, but there site is down right now.

Thanks Everyone!

 

Call Edelbrock h:

Should have used loc-tite. :nono:

 

:werd:

 

I did, the tech didn't know....

We did, on everything, remember??

One of the techs at my dad's work (who is the sh!t I might add) sent home 3 grade 8 nuts just from the description that I gave him, and they fit perfectly. They are loc-tite fitted, and tighted down. Exhaust leak fixed.

 

I don't remember you loc-titing those. :thinking:

You'll get used to dropping nuts/bolts. Took me forever to get them to quit. :chuckles:

 

Crap... that's not cool.

 

They are now!! :fawk:

No, it was not a good thing. Took it out today and everything was fine except that darn CEL. I have a feeling that it will be a lot more responsive when it is not running so rich....
