Hi guys I have been cleaning up my engine bay & would like to respray the manifold heat shield but all the bolts are rusted in has any one got any ideas how to remove them I have tried penetrating oil with on luck

Mine only came off with the heat of a blowtorch. You could try getting the engine to temperature and trying to crack the bolts, but be very careful

(though it probably won't be hot enough on the bolt)

I had to get the grinder out to take my rattley heatshield off

Its always the hard to reach nuts that won't budge. After two lost knuckels out the grinder came!
