possum Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I have been getting an annoying rattle and have secured everything under the truck. But the donut gasket flange bolts turn in their holes with hardly any effort. Should they do this? Or should they be tight? :dunno: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puritan21 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 If you are talking about the exhaust donut, the bolts should be tight, otherwise you will end up with a rattle and an exhaust leak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
possum Posted January 26, 2010 Author Share Posted January 26, 2010 Thank you. I figured they should be tight. I don't have a leak yet but it is starting to rattle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasbulliwagen Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 If everything is tight and you still get a rattle, your cat converter could be shot inside allowing peices of the converter element to bouce around insaide the case. If all else is tight, tap on the converter with a rubber mallet and see if it rattles inside. Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
