THE GRIM RIPPER Posted September 4, 2008 Report Posted September 4, 2008 My one side (left to be specific) has worn a bit on the expansion chamber sleeve.... Whenever I remove the ehaust I usually use some copper sealant but it bugs me its not as snug as my other side and I'm sure it leaks (not a lot but enough) So my question is has anyone had this happen on one or both Jugs? And what did they do about it, or is there no permanent fix? I had the idea of using a rubber freeze plug and a torch to try to expand it to a snug fit but seems risky. Any input would be sweet, thanks guys Quote
Onesickcrewcab Posted September 4, 2008 Report Posted September 4, 2008 If you heat it hot enough with a torch to expand it, the freeze plug is going to melt also. I say put some new o rings in it, and maybe seal up the extra with some high temp RTV. Dont know what else you can really do.. Unless you know someone who can weld on the outside and machine it back down to where it used to be. Sounds pricey. Quote
