I am trying to replace the turbo on my Syncro TriStar.� It it held on to the manifold with three 13mm nuts, these nuts go on to studs which go into the manifold.� I really don't want to break the studs.� I can put enough pressure on the socket where I know if I go much further the stud will break. Three days of penetrating oil "3-IN-ONE 'High Performance Penetrant'" and no with luck other than my garage stinks.� I've tried the tighten a bit and then loosen which seems to work with allen bolts and light tapping with the impact gun... they're still in place. What should I do next?� David Marshall VW Adventure Driver and BMW Adventure Rider HasenWerk http://www.hasenwerk.ca
