Heater tube removal and replace.

Post by bevel drive »

Hi, Does anybody know how to remove the heater tube from the SU inlet manifold it's the front one. I have removed the core plug and the tube is very rusty and has holes in it. I have another manifold and it's just as bad
Regards Ray.

Hi
I would drill it out, I suspect you may have to make good the area around the pipe by dilling out oversize and making up a bush to get you back to the original sized pipe.
best regards
