Brokeshee Posted January 31, 2017 Report Posted January 31, 2017 Hey banshee boys just wondering if there's any easy ways to fix exhaust leaks from the headers. I'm thinking about buying new pipes but if I could fix my exhaust would be cheaper it is leaking as in smoke is escaping. It started when my exhaust pipe broke from the silencer while riding. Any tips Quote
Ayesully810 Posted January 31, 2017 Report Posted January 31, 2017 So your header started leaking exhaust from the exhaust port when ur silencer broke? Try new orings in the headers to get a better seal My old stock cylinders leaked oil from them because they were old and worn even with new oring and tight springs, the pipe didnt seal as good because of pipes being taken on and off, wear on the exhaust port where the header goes on etc. Quote
Brokeshee Posted January 31, 2017 Author Report Posted January 31, 2017 No not from the exhaust port from where the the head pipe clamps to the frame. 1 silencer broke completely off from the stinger just where the silencer is and I weilded it back on but it's crooked now an yeah not a good situation Sent from my SM-A310Y using Tapatalk Quote

Ayesully810 Posted January 31, 2017 Report Posted January 31, 2017 (edited) So your head pipe is cracked on the mount where it bolts to the exhaust hanger? Edited January 31, 2017 by Ayesully810 Quote
Brokeshee Posted January 31, 2017 Author Report Posted January 31, 2017 I think so little bit of smoke comes out from there Sent from my SM-A310Y using Tapatalk Quote

Ayesully810 Posted January 31, 2017 Report Posted January 31, 2017 I think mostly it has many very weld can just give a shot go a head it piss let me know. Quote
Brokeshee Posted January 31, 2017 Author Report Posted January 31, 2017 I will give it go when I get my hands on another welder hopefully it works out if not I guess I'll be buying new pipes. Do you think there's any other ways? What's this exhaust wrap stuff will that stop the leak? Sent from my SM-A310Y using Tapatalk Quote
sleeper06 Posted January 31, 2017 Report Posted January 31, 2017 Cut it apart n start over with it bolted in place , tack it in a cpl spots then weld. You could rig the silencer where it's leaking or epoxy it for now. Something tells me it FUBAR tho. Quote
Ayesully810 Posted January 31, 2017 Report Posted January 31, 2017 Idk how big is the hole? You said yourself your not sure if there is even a hole. Post some pics of it. Just take a pic on your phone then upload through tapatalkaakaakak Quote
Brokeshee Posted January 31, 2017 Author Report Posted January 31, 2017 Good idea sleeper..worth a try rather then buying new pipes. Sent from my SM-A310Y using Tapatalk Quote
Brokeshee Posted January 31, 2017 Author Report Posted January 31, 2017 I can't see a hole it must be a tiny split or something il take some pics when I'm next at my shed. Thanks Sent from my SM-A310Y using Tapatalk Quote
