Hi
I haven't repaired any exhaust system for a while and I need to change the muffler from my beater this Saturday. I bought a muffler and a set of bolts and nuts with spring. My noob question is do I need to tight the nut until it touches the end (or the stopper) of the bolt? I know the question sounds stupid. But I want to make sure that it's the right thing to do and I don't want take anything for granted.
Also, if you don't have oxygen/ acetylene torch, what home tools or products you use to unfreeze the rusted nuts?
Thx.
