 |
|
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?
