y pipe leak
I am new to forumn hellow to everybody.
I have a leak on the passenger side I can see the flex section jumping up and down when it is cold when I pulled down on it it stopped leaking I don't know if it is sleeved or not. Can I put a clamp on it until I get the part? Jeff |
change it now!! before it gets way worse puts soot everywhere and does in make a whistling sound?
|
Do the solid tubes make it a lot harder to install the y pipe back on the turbo? I asume you need to take the tubro of.
Thanks Jeff |
i cant remember not a big ford guy but i thinkit does come out did a y pipe a while ago o my cousins truck with him its a pain in the ass but its not horrible at one point you will need two people though to hold a wrench up top

Some guys are making y-pipes with a stronger section for the flex area. Hard piping is something to do with the cab off and easy access to make sure it all lines up.
|
I found a guy in Va. That makes a nice y pipe he just needs to get some cores back. He ceramic coats the inside of them. Both sides have a braided section in them I wonder if the coating would stay on that section. I would think that it might damage the turbo? Not sure about any of that?
|
It's always refreshing to see someone who uses ceramic coating properly and puts it on the INSIDE of the piping. Can't tell you how many times I've seen it put on the outside...
|
While you have the y-pipe in your hand, why not open up that bottle neck below the collector? Some guys are welding it up from the outside then grinding through the pipe and forming it from the inside. No official results yet, but it looks promising to eliminate some restriction. When I do mine, we are also going to knock down that "plenum" where the two pipes come together inside as much as possible.
