Default Generator Exhaust Pipe

Generator Exhaust Pipe The large nut, or union, turns counterclockwise, facing from the exhaust end towards the engine. We recommend you apply penetrating oil and let it sit for at least an hour. If it still appears to be stuck, apply some heat to the nut.

Just for kicks I tried lubricating the threads on this union with Champion spark plug thread lube that I had from my aircraft mechanic days. The stuff is still available through any aircraft parts supply house such as Aircraft Spruce or Wag Aero for less than $10. Since I put this on the only problem I've had is with the nut loosening up, but I like that problem better than the aggrevation of having it stuck.
