Muffler Gaskets Replaced

[T.J.]

I had been having backfires going on for about two years. Had Don sync the carbs at M-Day this year like never before. He did a fine job for sure.

 

Puk had mentioned before M-Day that maybe Gaskets were leaking. I tightened everything before M-Day but still backfired on the way down and still got it on the way back home after M-Day.

 

Anyway I changed out six of the Gaskets. Three on each side and now I am Backfire Free.:happy65:Here are a few pics.

 

I really had to clean out the old gaskets before replacing with new. I used a drum sander to do it.

 

The backfire was really annoying after awhile. I am very happy with the outcome.

and let this be a perpetual, everlasting testament to all who read this article = following Puc does't ALWAYS end in getting lost or some kind of other chaotic disaster
