I'm in the middle of replacing the exhaust manifold gasket and have run into some issues. Good news is that I searched the forum and found some suggestions forremoving my broken stud/thread stripped, and lack of room to get the manifold past the studs (remove the studs & replace).
I noticed that my exhaust down pipe is touching the steering column. Doesn't seem right to me even though it's only a slight touch. Rust ring around the steerring column suggests it's been like this for a while. No wear marks though.
Any suggestions on how to create a bit more space? There doesn't seem like there can be much as the other side of the downpipe is already touching the side of the engine.
Thanks.
