Exhaust System Repair Tools 200 90

posted by  someone claiming to be Bruce on  Wed Oct 10 06:17 CST 2001 [RELATED]

I have a few general exhaust system repair questions:

Can you give me an idea of what special tools I will need?

I was told that I may need a torch to facilitate an exhaust system repair. What is a torch used for? Welding? I thought I could use brackets for everything? Perhaps it is needed for disassembling something that was previously welded? Perhaps it was a general statement about using any type of flame to help get those corroded fasteners out?

Regarding welding equipment, isn't it expensive, even used? A MIG welder is what I need, not an oxyacetylene system, correct? Now, what about the gas tank, isn't it right down there very near? Isn't a MIG welder much safer? And just how difficult is the learning curve for welding? Just want to know what is involved with this aspect.

Thanks, Bruce
