downpipe nuts removed

[Kneale Brownson]

Finally got that fourth nut off the downpipe at the turbo.  Turns out that
while the other three are 17mm nuts, this one was a 15mm.   I broke it
loose with a crowsfoot and took it off with a 15 mm stubby, one 1/16th
painful turn at a time.   So now I can drop the exhaust and start figuring
out whatever problem will stand in the way next on the clutch job.

BTW, I bought a set of "half moon" boxend wrenches that include two ends
with 12mm and two with 14, but no 15.  A 15 halfmoon would have made the
short turns a bit less painful.  No faster, probably, but a bit less
contortioning of an old wrist.
