how to clean out a Vectra exhaust manifold which is blocked

donegal_road · 2013-05-11 14:25:24

hi... just wondering what is the best way to how to clean out a Vectra exhaust manifold which is blocked... the EGR valve has been taken off and cleaned, but the manifold has a lot of hardened dirt inside. Currently trying to make in-roads to clean it. Will I need to be careful so as not to push the dirt further in? thanks…

The actual manifold itself..... Take it off and chip the hardened crust off? Soak the result in gunk.....
