Exhaust Bung removal
 

hi, can anyone suggest how to remove a very tight exhaust bung,garage have put it in for MOT now it wont come out, tried firing it out under exhaust pressure and using a hooked metal rod through the centre but it wont budge.

any ideas

cheers

when I got mine stuck, I used my mag light and used that to gently wiggle it lose

Why did MOT need it?

I got a pair of pliers, attached to the centre of bung and just kept wiggling. Make sure the screw has been taken out of bottom off exhaust.

apparently it was too loud to pass MOT, so theyve put the bung in, yea i taken the screw out lol when ive been trying to remove it. ill try a few other things before i go back to the garage

MIG welder tack a piece of steel near to the centre then a pair of vice/mole grips clip on and tap out.
