So Peter, I'd think that your local muffler shop would be able to install a bung in place in about fifteen minutes if the pipe is sound. Should be able to weld the bung on and then drill through the middle. Might need a right-angle drill to be able to get the bung up onto the side of the pipe without moving it. Yours, David |
