O.K. I got a few other pretty good ones.

1.Soak the rusty old manifold bolts and brake line fittings repeatedly with liquid wrench or PB DAYS before you are going to tackle the job.

2.Sharp blows on the wrench or ratchet with the palm of your hand on the really tough ones saves you alot of strain and alot of skinned knuckles.

3.Order of methods for removing the stuck nuts and bolts
1. box wrench
2. impact wrench
3. six point socket and breaker bar
4. smoke wrench

4. Speedbleeders

5. When your just about ready to torch the thing yourself just walk away. It will be there in the morning.

6. Give it a tuneup
