Operator 7 #1 Posted December 14, 2010 OK guys your opinion here, Went for my road trip to pick up my three point mower and a 48" blower, and on a bench there sat some more D parts! Three mufflers!!! some hyd. lines and misc. stuff bought it all! My D-200 needs mufflers but the PO sawed off the pipe just before the elbow going into mufflers, so I need to unscrew the cut pipe. Should I unbolt it off motor? Leave on and use torch heat then let it cool and try? The wax trick? Randy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Don1977 604 #2 Posted December 14, 2010 I would try to remove it from the engine. You can do a lot of damage trying to unscrew pipe. I take it your talking about schedule 40 water pipe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy w h 4 #3 Posted December 14, 2010 All ya gotta do is take a hacksaw blade and cut the pipe through the threads In the block alittle Then take a flat chisel and a hammer and roll the piece of Pipe out Indy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gerry w 2 #4 Posted December 15, 2010 Cut the pipe close to the manifold and do as stated before, using a hand held hackc=saw blade carefully cut though the remaining pipe to split it and then using a small chisel bend it up and then out. Not to bad a job to do. Good luck! I wouldn't try the manifold studs, they rust in pretty solid, so be careful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
.5racer 14 #5 Posted December 15, 2010 Give a good tack of a bar crosswise inside the busted off niple , melt wax on threads , weld heat might be enough ,,, let cool ,use pliers and screw out Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
