Bounty Hunter Posted May 11, 2006 Posted May 11, 2006 I need to tigthen the downpipe where it attaches to the exhaust manifold, does the Renix use a donut gasket here?
mjeff87 Posted May 11, 2006 Posted May 11, 2006 Mine doesn't (although it's a 2.5...it's still Renix :D ). Just 2 studs on the end of the manifold that fit thru a flange collar on the pipe, held by 2 9/16" nuts. The end of the intermediate pipe is flared a bit. Simple but cheezy design IMHO, but it works!

Pete M Posted May 11, 2006 Posted May 11, 2006 I don't remember a gasket back when I was screwing around with the exhaust on my 88, but maybe it had welded itself to the manifold?
CWLONGSHOT Posted May 11, 2006 Posted May 11, 2006 Be MIGHTY careful and LOTSA lube, you don't wanna break those puppys off!!! I just did mine last friday!!! Did not break them either!! :) Good luck, CW
Stumpy Posted May 12, 2006 Posted May 12, 2006 mine has one. i changed it out as it was leaking, but found out it was the manifold... :mad:
