    Removing salt rusted parts is a skill northern mechanics learn.


    Southern mechanics see northern rust and look like deer in headlights = snap, snap, snap...

    Yeah I hate rust. Usually the blue flame crescent is the only solution but that tube is pretty thin and flimsy. I have my crossover tube off the engine and after looking inside at how it was made I was not impressed. Guess it did the job but I think I will just clean it up and set it aside to look at. I admire your tenacity though Agent2006. My 03 is pretty rusty too but I wanna save it just like you
