This question is for any of you that have the FWF package, from Jabiru, for the 3300 engine.
The muffler has three holes, on each side, that fit into the three exhaust pipes and is held on by one spring (on each side). This does not seem to make a very good seal and there is clear evidence that exhaust gases are leaking on both sides. Has anyone else seen this problem, and if so, what have you done to fix it?
Thank you,
Randy 601xl, Jabiru 3300

i have that engine, and just followed the directions, the fit is quite tight. The thing I suggest though is the springs do wear on the muffler so add a thick beed of red RTV to the springs and safety wire them. The springs need to be replaced from time to time.
MOST IMPORTANTE Make sure that the muffler exhaust goes past the fire wall. or there will be CO in the cock pit. Just take the muffler and add 8 inches to it with slip on extensions you can have made at an auto muffler house. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED>
