I'm making a kit so i can blow out the dents in my header pipe.
What i would like to know is what sort of air pressure do i need to maintain in the exhaust while i heat it up?
Also will a butain gas blow tourch (plumbers type) be hot enought?
many Thanks

I've got dents in my fuel tank

Do you think I should empty the tank before trying the same ?

A good way to remove 'pop' dents in the tank is the good old toilet plunger. By poking the handle end of a screwdriver inside the tank and pumping on the plunger I removed a muther of a dent in 2 minutes.
