Anti

Post by sammy347 »

Just wanted to ask if anyone here ever used milk of magnesia on exhaust manifold studs. I'm putting on a split flange and going to use ss bolts. I was just reading about mm on another forum seems it's even used in jet fighters as an anti seize. Cheers

Hahahaha MM No...

50/50 ATF* & Acetone. Works wonders...

Give them a good soak over a week with a fresh dob daily. Use a decent stud extractor & give it a wee nip up to break the corrosion bond...

*Automatic Transmission Fluid... ATF
Making up since 2007, sometimes it's true...Honest...

It will interesting to hear first hand from you if it does work as an anti-seize agent?
