<snip> Is it ok to simply de-rust it and go from there, or is replacement necessary <snip> I can only say that on an '84 I no longer have, one of the studs broke and another stretched to the point the cap nut could be wiggled. Disassembly showed that those two studs were badly corroded. I didn't repair that engine so I didn't address the torque values for the studs. Mike '84 GL 7 pass '85 GL Westy
