I tried that, I bought a new floor jack two extra jack stands and covers. I don't have any impact tools so I tried to use my Craftsmen sockets.

I pre spayed the flange nuts with wd-40. All of the bolts were on super tight. I started at the muffler to flange nuts. I was just barley able to loosen 3 of them. When I tried the 4th one it was so tight that the nut rounded off. I ended up cutting the nut off. I removed the muffler.

I went to the do the next 4 nuts, got 1 off, super tight again. Went to do the next one and the nut rounded. Got mad and put it back together. I'm not a pro mechanic but i have done plenty of work on cars sport bikes etc.

With out a impact and compressor they weren't coming off.

Believe me I don't like to ever quit something that I start. But this time I knew when to throw in the towel.

Anyway the new F.I. system is sweet!
