Question

John has an exhaust leak in his Acura Integra GS-R, What steps would he take to fix the leak in time for his inspection?

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Fist you need to identify where the leak is coming from. You can do this by either listening for the leak or spraying soapy water on the exhaust to look for air bubbles coming out of the exhaust. Depending on the spot of the leak there are many ways you can fix this leak.

1. Exhaust clamp

2. Exhaust putty

3. Exhaust tape

4. New exhaust

Exhaust clamp is best used for holes on straight pipes.

Putty is best used on welds or small holes like on exhaust manifolds or welds connecting various pieces like catalytic converters, mufflers, or resonators.

Tape will work best on straight pipes with holes.

New exhaust is for when the thig is beyond repair, like rust.

Now good luck because working on exhausts is a pain.
