Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 3Original post

It's a simple set up. Are your bolt and clamps shot?

POST 4Original post

If the bolts on the sleeve that joins the muffler with the catalytic converters are rusted solid and you can't get them out, just cut off the nut. You can replace them with any similar size stainless steel at your local hardware store. They don't need to be a specific size, they just need to be long enough. You'll likely have to hit the sleeves with penetrating oil to get them to move after the bolts are removed. You might have to tap them with a hammer to get them started. The clamps that hold the tips to the muffler might need replacing, but you can try cutting the bolts if necessary and just replacing the nuts and bolts.
