Broken manifold bolts / manifold removal

I suggest you use all new exhaust manifold hardware and torque new bolts to 20 Ft Lbs.
4.5L and 4.9L Engines
RIGHT
Disconnect the negative battery cable. Remove the air cleaner. Remove the exhaust crossover pipe. Disconnect the oxygen and coolant temperature sensors. Remove the catalytic converter-to-AIR pipe clip bolt. Remove the upper manifold-to-cylinder head bolts. Raise and safely support the vehicle. Disconnect the converter air pipe bracket from the stud and remove the converter-to-manifold exhaust pipe. Support the engine cradle with screw jacks and remove the rear cradle bolts. Loosen the front cradle bolts and slightly lower the Engine cradle. Remove the remaining exhaust manifold-to-cylinder head bolts, the AIR pipe, and the manifold. Clean the gasket mounting surfaces.
To install:
Install the exhaust manifold and replace the AIR pipe. Tighten the manifold mounting bolts to 16-18 ft. lbs. (21-24 Nm). Install the manifold-to-converter exhaust pipe and replace the converter air pipe bracket to the stud. Raise the Engine cradle and install the rear cradle bolts. Tighten to 75 ft. lbs. (102 Nm). Lower the vehicle. Replace the upper manifold-to-cylinder head bolts. Replace the converter air pipe to AIR pipe clip bolt. Connect the coolant temperature and oxygen sensor connectors. Replace the exhaust crossover pipe. Replace the air cleaner and connect the negative battery cable. Start the Engine and check for leaks.

the manifold will have to be pulled off
rusted bolts and nuts can be removed with the application of heat on the nut bolt followed quick cooling with wd -40
it breaks the rust seal
use rust penetrant liberly

The starter install is fairly simple and will require a 13mm socket and a long extension. First get the car securely on jack stands or ramps so your have access to the bottom of the car and engine.  lying on your back with your head towards the rear of the vehicle (approximately center of the car) you can look up past the exhaust pipe and CV axles and see the starter from there.
 
First remove the main wire that comes from the battery (13mm nut and lock washer)  then unplug the two wires that are on separate sides of the lug you just remove (noting the wire colors and which side you removed them from).  
Next remove the 13mm bolt that holds the bracket attached to the rear of the starter. It's the one bolted the to the engine block that is attached to the passenger side of the starter.
Lastly you will find 3, 13mm bolts that actually bolt the starter through the engine bell housing into the transmission.  
There is one on the very bottom, one in the center (kinda towards the rear of the vehicle only about 3 1/2" upward of the bottom bolt) and one at the very top directly opposite the bottom bolt ( this one is the hardest to locate and remove but it's up there, you just have to feel around or get a light to shine on the top of the starter to see it)  
After all bolts are removed you navigate the starter out by pulling it towards the passenger side wheel and between the CV axles and suspension parts of the front end.
To reinstall it's the opposite of this procedure!
Hope this Helps!!

Hello, there will be 2 (14mm) nuts on each exhaust manifold flange if it's a 2.2 liter and 3 (14mm)on each if it's a 2.5 liter. Remove your under shield if equipped and then there is a bracket mounted on the rear of the transmission on the passengers side of the trans that the exhaust is bolted to(14mm). then the 2 bolts with the small springs must also be removed (bolts are 14mm/nuts are 12mm). You can't forget about the oxygen sensor connectors, they must be disconnected first, one should be towards the back of the trans and the other at the front, both coming off of the exhaust. It's easiest to locate the sensors first then follow the wires to the connectors. I hope this info helps...(subyguru)...

Need to R&Rand put splash flaps in the fender wells.

Bolts are screwed into the manifold (actually studs)
Best thing to do is to have someone heat them with a torch and get the nuts free. If the studs are in really bad shape, you will have to remove them from manifold and replace them (usually a torch job as well) Not a job for a burns o matic...need a real torch for this one! Or, just snap them off and remove manifolds to fix them.
