ok guys im doin an emission removal and figure while ive got it this disassembled I might as well replace all nuts and bolts with new ones, so my question is the LIM studs for split air and coolant are they normal threads or reverse threads ie Lefty Loosey because im havin a hell of a time getting them out.

 

the stud's are regular thread. try using small vise grips..usually work's for me.

:AA:

 

You can get the studs at NAPA,or Partsource, Barnett...I got my Exhaust studs at Partsource(Brockville) for 1.75 each..they are Metric.(of course).
