Mice nests from heat shield and 9/16 bolt behind manifold

Posted by packard4one On 2019/5/30 19:01:30

I am new here and have removed some mice nests around the valves where mice made a nest out of the heat shield through the exhaust. I removed a good amount around several of the valves. I had no compression on several cylinders and believe this is due to the mice nest. I have removed all of the 11/16 bolts to remove the manifold, but there is one 9/16 bolt left that is very tricky to get to behind the manifold. Is there any advice for removing this 9/16 bolt? I believe I have to remove the fender panel as well as the passenger wheel to remove this bolt. Any advice or suggestion is most appreciated. Trying to get this beauty back on the road.
