I used Liqui Molly rapid rust loosener in the past. Worked like magic...

It's a bit late but old school way to get the turds out is put car up on stands start car get it to operating temp then show them a spanner and they fall out BUT watch out things are a little hot for a while,let it cool down then rip into it,works every time.The rule of expansion n contraction.

Hes talking about getting to them, not getting them out. Connectors are in a prick of a spot apparently.

I did see one of the exhaust guru's here post a tip to getting to them in one of the exhaust threads that have been in this section over the past few months. Have a bit of a search it might pop up. Think it might have been posted by "Not an abba fan" of "monstar"
