Troubleshooting

Stud will not thread into the hole

Verify the thread size (M8 x 1.25) and ensure the hole is clean and free from obstructions or damaged threads. Check for cross-threading.

Stud is too long after installation

The longer thread is designed to be cut to length. Remove the stud and trim it to the required size before reinstallation.

Difficulty tightening nut onto stud

Ensure the nut has the correct thread pitch (M8 x 1.25) and is not cross-threaded. Check that the stud is fully seated.

Rust or corrosion observed on stud

While lubricated to prevent corrosion, prolonged exposure to moisture can cause rust. Clean the stud thoroughly and consider using an anti-seize compound during installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the mounting surfaces on the cylinder head and manifold are clean and free of debris.
  2. If custom length is required, carefully measure and cut the longer end of the stud using an appropriate metal cutting tool (e.g., hacksaw, Dremel with cutting disc).
  3. Thread the studs into the cylinder head or manifold by hand or with a stud driver, ensuring they are seated correctly.
  4. Apply a small amount of anti-seize compound to the threads that will mate with the nut, if desired, for future disassembly.

Compatibility:

  • Thread Size: M8 x 1.25 (ensure this matches your existing or replacement manifold nuts and threaded holes).
  • Applications: Primarily designed for inlet and exhaust manifolds on Fiat and Porsche vehicles. Always verify compatibility with your specific vehicle model and year.
  • Nuts: Compatible with Connect M8 x 1.25 nuts (e.g., Part Nos. 35412, 31564, 30736, 30739, 30737, 30742, 30741, 35414) or any other M8 x 1.25 nuts.

Care:

  • The studs are supplied with a light lubrication to prevent corrosion during storage and transit. This lubrication can be wiped off if desired before installation, or left on.
  • Store in a dry place to maintain their condition.
