Unfortuneately I'm on a serious budget, those studs were expensive.

i got a set for like 12 bucks at napa a few years back when i did them on the work truck. it had 3 busted off bolt heads, it was time to pull that manifold off.

Ok, thought this was an exhaust leak because header bolts were loose. Tightened them but noise is still there. I can't tell if it's exhaust or under the valve cover. Def noise from the top end somewhere. Opinions or suggestions?
Hood closed.

I'm not a huge advocate of SeaFoam... but there's 2 things I've found it works really well for. Small engines and identifying exhaust leaks. Pull the vacuum line off the brake booster, let it suck up about 3 oz of it, then put the vacuum line back on.

That nice white smoke will billow out of whatever exhaust leak you have... if it's a small leak, the liquid will run out of the crack.

Like I said, not a fan of SeaFoam, but that's one thing it does quite well.

i would really recommend you use studs. they clamp tight and hold and dont break off.

Ye---wellll....... everything but the "don't break off" part.
