Subject:      Exhaust Leak? '90 Westy
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Hey folks,

Well, I got up this beautiful Sunday morning, here in Northern California, me and the wife got dressed up in our Sunday best for church and when I went out to start up the Westy I heard the "sound". Sounds like an exhaust leak, but I have not checked her out to be sure (going to do that right now). Sounds like a loud external ticking, much like the normal motor sound amplified. Can anyone concur with such little data? She only has 6k on a brand new motor.

Anyway, assuming this is in fact an exhaust leak how serious is the matter? To put things in perspective I am planning on a trip to Medford Oregon next week (600-700 miles) and I am not sure I can fix it unless I have to.

Any advice?

Thanks!

Chris
