Wheres the best place to seperate this pipe? The reason I ask is I was told not to try to take the bolts out if the cast iron exhaust.

Pull the screws and pull apart

I'm replacing a blower on a P61.

I see the orange seal looks damaged. Is it reusable and if not what can I use to replace it. I measured the temperature there and it's around 150f. Don't need carbon monoxide poisoning. Local hardware carries sealer good to 350f and aluminum tape good for the same temp.

That looks like red high heat RTV ie Permatex brand. I have a stove adapter on mine, and it came with a flat gasket, but that is between the stove and the adapter. You can pick some up at Ctire or any auto parts place ect.

I hit Homehardware, it has 450f sealer. I measured the temps, it's 150f there

That should be fine, but there is one that says 650F

Has any body, pulled there stove out to replace the blower by themselves? Or installed their stove by themselves? It looks pretty difficult to me. Especially lining up the pipes at the back.

Many here have recycled or rebuilt stoves or installed them many many times. Yes it’s tough work but it’s gotta be done. Your manual gives all clearances and recommends vent lengths and options.

Any tricks to moving a 250 lb stove in line with the exhaust pipe?

There are usually two guys for a new install. Plus 2 more doing other things. By yourself, it would depend on the floor ect. Furniture moving teflon pads would work on a smooth floor. I have not had to deal with it yet, but not looking forward to it. I'd like to raise mine up a bit when the time comes.

I have a sticky mat under mine. It will be me and my mechanic. And I'm useless at 70.
