| Subject: | 582 exhaust leak |
Got my new Bluehead in and it runs smooth as silk. Thanks Rotax Rick in Florida
for a beautiful engine.
When assembling the exhaust, I used anti-seize compound on the spring knuckle joints
which was probably a mistake. It all melts/blows away anyway and just makes
a big mess in the engine compartment. It did however, show me a little leak
where the exhaust man is attached to the first 90 deg fitting. While the
engine's running, I can feel a little jet of hot exhaust spitting back towards
the block.
Anyone know of a better way to seal these spring loaded joints?

It shouldn't leak if aligned properly. try re-aligning the exhaust pipes into the
knuckles better.
