Ok guys im sure some of u have had this problem. I have a pretty bad exhaust leak on the left cylinder where the pipe meets the motor. I tried new rubber o-ring's with some sealant. I let the sealant set up for like 3 days and it still blows the damn things out. and now the right cylinder is startin to do it. Help me out guys. PEACE.

I had the same problem with mine, and it ended up that there was a groove worn in the exhaust flange coming off of the cylinder. I cleaned it up real good, and used a good 2 part epoxy to fill the groove in. After letting it dry for 24 hours, I sanded it down to match the rest of the flange, installed a new o-ring, and no more leaks.

there are different o-rings you can buy as well. I think CPI's come stock with some beefy ones you could try out. I run them in my shearers now, because I got sick of watching them leak. It was a bitch getting the pipes over the exhaust flange, I mean a real bitch.
