Securing my exhaust
Hi all
I fitted a new link pipe to my car at the weekend. This is the pipe between cat and silencer. The pipe I got for the job was about a foot too long, so I cut it down and unfortunatley cut it a bit too short! Where the pipe overlaps the existing pipe, it used to be about an inch judging by the marks on it. Now it is half that. I clamped it as is and it seems OK, but obviously isn't as secure as it should be. My options seem to be:
I would rather make what I've got more secure than start again! If you've made it this far, thanks for reading. Is there anything I haven't considered? |

Re: Securing my exhaust
See if you buy a sleeve to cover he joint and pack it with exhaust paste! New section wold be best though as the exhaust paste would blow through eventually
