Well, that will teach me to make rash statements about things not going wrong in other threads...
Coming back from work along the A27 last night I noticed I was getting a bit of a blow from the exhaust, that nice gentle raspberry sort of tone, and I thought "I really must take a look at that at the weekend". With near perfect comedy timing, there is a godalmighty roar, and I can see sparks behind me, with and a line of traffic jamming on brakes just in case the things went flying...
The exhaust pipe had rusted though at the join to the silencer box...
Anyway, I've found a replacement in the local motor factors (£34 from CPA in Henfield, really quick and helpful), and got the old bit of pipe loose, so any top tips for threading the new one in?
Cheers
John
