Getting out Injectors, Glow Plugs and Ex Manifold Bolts

Posted by F100Panel on August 12, 2013 at 04:38:49 from (74.209.24.155):

Started the old girl up the other day for a small job.. Drove her out of the garage and let her idle/warm up.. It"s a diesel... I look over & it"s puffing blue... I go get a couple things and a cup of coffee. 20 minutes later I look over and it"s still blowing smoke.. That shoulda warmed up by now.. then i realize its WHITE smoke.. I go over and I smell.....STEAM.....

I"m hoping its just a head gasket... I HATE head gaskets on 25 year old motors that never been touched.. While the head is off I should have it magnafluxed for a crack, get the valves done, have the injectors rebuilt and new glow plugs..

What I REALLY hate is snapping off an exhaust manifold bolt, injector or glow plug trying to get them out...

Anybody got any good tried and true tricks for getting these things out without snapping them off? The job is nothing...unless I snap something off.... So far the best thing I"ve found for heat siezed items is put some pressure on it then rap the wrench with a hammer.. ALWAYS works on changing automotive disc brakes but when your wacking bolts on a dick brake caliper mount your not wacking on a $1000 head....
