Kohler exaust nipple
 
I need to get a black pipe nipple out of a 12 hp engine, any tips or tricks?
1. Its not mine , so I cant break the block
2. soaked it for 3 days with solvent
3. heat is not a option, at this time- if it was mine I would heat it up

If I slice it up and chisel it, I run the risk of leaving 1/2 of pipe still inside

cant find a pipe ez out 3/4 inch, not even fastenal

Rigid makes pipe thread extractors. They are a little on the pricey side.

I got it!, I sliced the stub in to sections, die grinder on the inside to get the pipe thinner, then hit it careful with a air hammer to implode it. No worries, LOL
