manifold and turbo bolt ?

one of the 4 bolts that hold the mani to the turbo are about 75% on but its super *** tight but im afraid if i try to tighten it, its gunna snap so is it okay to leave like that or just break it off and get a new one....cause ive tried to take out all of them and it still wont come out so what shall i do?

Have you tried running your engine till its really hot like 15 mins or so?

Then use a rust prohibiter spray on it, it will steam and bubble for a sec, then work the bolt left, then right, meaning tighten it, then loosen it a bit, then work it like that back and forth.

But make sure you let the spray sit for a few mins. Go slow and take your time.

if you can get it back out put some liquid graphite, or loc-tite, or anything like that on the bolt. might help. If not crank the car up then try again.
