Exhaust Manifold - Somewhat OT

Posted by Michael Sheik on September 20, 2006 at 04:55:07 from (199.153.205.246):

I recently acquired a Hesston 420 swather. It is self propelled, mid 70's and most likely has set out its entire life from the looks of it. Runs great but the exhaust mainfold is cracked (1/8 to 1/4 gaps) in 4 or 5 places. I have another good one on a parts machine. I attempted to loosen some of the bolts/nuts last night but due to age, weather and who knows what, they are all rock solid. Surely someone has had this same problem on old tractor restoration and has some secrets or tricks to get these things to budge. I am eager for suggestions.
