merckx Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Just use some exhaust assembly paste over the existing gaskets, it works without the gaskets too. Use plenty, better too much than too little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcgoo Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 use silicone rather than exhaust paste Instant gasket is always a winner as its flexible so it won't crack and start blowing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 Exhaust assembly paste is designed for this, Is the silicone stuff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 yes as a few exhaust and tyre places round my end use it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted May 31, 2007 Share Posted May 31, 2007 I've never heard of that before, I didn't think it would be rated for the high temps the exhaust reaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
