Maybe someone could come over and have a look with you? A fresh set of eyes can go a long way, especially when you're frustrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joffa1 Member 143 Member For: 7y 5m 30d Posted 05/03/18 05:53 AM Author Share Posted 05/03/18 05:53 AM Yeah someone who knows these cars well I’m sure would find it pretty quickly... I’m in Melbourne, outer eastern suburbs but working in Kew at the moment so happy to drop by anyone’s place if they would be interested in taking a look... Metrinch hey... ok will check them out. Not really sure this is where the leak is coming from though so inclined to leave them until they come lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, unless there is a hole in the exhaust it should be fairly cheap to get sorted. Edited 05/03/18 06:18 AM by Puffwagon added a comma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joffa1 Member 143 Member For: 7y 5m 30d Posted 05/03/18 07:03 AM Author Share Posted 05/03/18 07:03 AM Yeah fair enough. I’m hoping they do find a lose bolt or bolts somewhere as I have been having some issues with lack of boost down low and hopefully this is the cause.... will keep you updated. Cheers.

joffa1 Member 143 Member For: 7y 5m 30d Posted 07/03/18 08:08 AM Author Share Posted 07/03/18 08:08 AM Ha ha. It’s booked in for an exhaust inspection tomorrow arvo as I’ve run out of time to try and fix it myself. So hopefully will have an answer for you tomorrow night. No doubt will be something obvious I have missed! Looking forward to getting to the bottom of it, sounds like an old tractor at the moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
