I have a '95 Cutlass supreme that has what I think is a loose connection at
the manifold /exhaust. It seems like a real tough place to get a wrench or
socket into. Do I need to take it to the shop or can I get at it myself.
By now you can tell that I'm no Auto Einstein...I'd really appreciate
any input on this. Thanks

I had a '92 of that model and had to tighten that connection a couple times.
I seem to remember using two 12" extensions, an impact univeral and the
correct socket. It's a little of an aggravation, but if you raise the car
enough, you can get at it. Don't forget the jackstands and a droplight.

Hope this helps.
