[Monteverdi]

Hi, i have a Stag from 1975, lovely car. But my meccanic cannot remvove the bolts on the head. Please, is there anybody who knows where I can buy|rent the correct tool. Rimmers didnt have any, nor HArt Racing.
Please let me know. Live in Sweden.

Just a thought - a Saab specialist?
Someone who knows the older ones.
They should be pretty familiar with this particular headache?

Ok, thanks, Adrian. I think my meccanic have talked to them, but I will check.
Thanks again for kind reply!

Hello Ian
Adrian, pointing you to a Saab mechanic, is remembering the content of an earlier posting. As a trial user you may not be able to search for it, but here it is. Some people here have reported good results but others say it does not work. The original poster suggested thet it was perhaps the high frequency hammering of an air hammer, as opposed to a slower electric one, that really does the trick. http://www.stag.org.uk/forum/showthread.php?15314.
Good luck
Brian

Hi Ian, not too difficult for a fabricator to make. I think Dasadrew has some drawings? I would bring mine over if you have a jet you can send for me....

JBuckle has mine at the moment, if he's around I'm sure e will post some pictures of it.

Ah, I see Glenn had the same thought

Check out the Technical Section of the Forum. It's all described.

Thannka and Cheers,
