I have a hole in my exhaust, I don't think it's very big because I can't see it, although I can hear it, problem is that I can't find it! Any suggestions as to how I might go about tracking it down s

While the car is cool start the car and have a friend block the tailpipe. This will cause the exaust gas to only come out of the hole making it easy to find. If it is a small hole the engine will sta

Here's a trick that I've used several times successfully on a standard downdraft type carb. It might be harder to do with a side draft, but... dump some automatic transmission fluid down the carb thr

Bill, I have done this trick before as well. One other benefit is that you kill mosquitoes and all the other flying insects in your neighborhood. Just be careful not to dump too much in, as a little

Could it be the downpipe gasket? The first time mine went it took a while to find it because it's not somewhere you think of looking immediately - that is, until it's blown so many times that you ca

I have heard that this trick can be done with redex, do I just pour it through the hole on top of one of the carbs? cheers John -- Bill Miller <millerb@netusa1.net> wrote: > Here's a trick that I've

The first place I would check is the joint between the exhaust manifold and the downpipe. There is supposed to be a copper gasket that fits in this joint, but these tend to go with monotonous regula

I would jack the car up nice and high (make sure you use good jack stands for this, safety first you know) and let it get good and cold. Start the car and quickly feel around the exhaust pipe, starti

No John, those hose hold the dashpot oil. They do not connect to the carb throats (unless the o-ring leaks) You have to put it down the carb throats (where the air goes in) I was thinking about this

Please be careful, however, and don't use (or check carefully) before using any kind of aerosol... the propellents can be quite flammable depending on what type is being used. Bill J. '68 GT8
