A.I.R. Tube Removal
Hello
I am going to try and remove the A.I.R. tubes from my manifolds off of my 91 RS. Whats the easiest way to get them to break loose. Also are the sizes metric like half of the bolts on the car?
I have tried WD-40, etc but they are so seized on and I dont want to round them off or strip one.
Thanks for any help and guidance.

It helps if you ...
1.) Get some thick gloves
2.) Cut the lines off with a hacksaw as close to the manifolds as possible.
3.) Start the car and let it warm up.
4.) Use a closed end wrench.
5.) Tap the wrench with a hammer to "knock" them loose.
That's how I did mine.

Thanks AJ for that tip. I started to hack them off but didnt do it yet. I think I will try that idea and see how it goes. Thanks!
