Been to the archive mountain and climbed it in search of exhaust system info. Found lots, thanks. Just one question. There are recommendations out there to use a sealant on exhaust gaskets. This includes the exhaust gaskets between the exhaust pipes and the head?? Is the experience of the group that the metal side of the VW exhaust gasket goes toward the head, with sealant between the head and the metal surface of the gasket and then sealant between the exhaust pipe/header and the other side of the gasket? Thanks. Dan Erlandson 91 GL 188k (disassembled exhaust system with no stripped threads or broken exhaust studs !!) |
