Exhaust Noise, For Spuron

chuckbaynham · 09-06-2016, 02:12 PM

Spuron,
I have had excessive exhaust noise after a top end rebuild (my first one).
I used the paper thin gasket that arrived with the top end rebuild kit.
My cart sounded like a dirt bike and I was not popular on the golf course.
After a day or so I took a look and the paper thin "new gasket" had blown out.
I retrieved the old exhaust flange gasket fro the trash and it was 3/16" - 1/4" in thickness and reinforced. I put it back in and the problem was solved.
By the way, especially for those south of the 49th, the two new cylinders I purchased over the past 5 years both had METRIC EXHAUST STUDS and nuts.
Size is M8 X 1.25.
