hi has any one seen the inside of the left heat exchanger reason being it sounds as the exhaust is blowing/popping a little but looked every were and cant find it heat exchanger are only 12months old and wondered if there were any seems inside them that may be leaking a little and that is why i cannot find it?????? thanks Rob
Mate , seen inside em ?. you will have people on here who have made tin cups outa them and drank vodka on Snowden from it - i haven't seen inside one though soz
no , can"t say i have, thou" one of mine is just worn thru" and at mo working ok, i.e. does not seem to be effecting exhaust/carb workings
blowing or popping?? it could be leaking from one of the joints...on the head or to the silencer or the tail pipe... start it up....put a rag in your hand and cover the tail pipe while your glamorous assistant lightly revs the engine while you look/listen/feel for any exhaust gas leaking out... remember red hot exhaust gasses will eventually burn through a pin hole and make it bigger. popping...air could be getting drawn in or unburned fuel from the engine could be ignighting in the silencer... exhaust gasses leaking into the heat exchanger and getting into the cab is bad news...i suspect you would smell it but you might not.....get it checked or co test inside....i wouldnt thing newish exchangers would leak like that from the inside out.
The pipes inside (I have x-ray vision ) are pretty thick and unlikely to leak. More likely a joint somewhere.
