I was told to slowly tac weld my exhaust but it does not seem to seal the pipes when I do this. I have a lincoln 180 with flux core wire.30. Thanks , Mark
its likely because you are using flux core, i have never used it so cant say for sure, but is it trapping slag in the weld?I was told to slowly tac weld my exhaust but it does not seem to seal the pipes when I do this. I have a lincoln 180 with flux core wire.30. Thanks , Mark
Laugh if you will, but that's what's holding my exhaust together.Just get some beer cans, jubilee clips and Holts exhaust goo.
Failing that reinforced mastic works too.
Many years ago, when I was in Oxford, I owned an MG midget. The exhaust manifold had broken off just at the lip. I slit a bean can down the side and clamped it on with a couple of jubilee clips. Every now and then it would fall off the manifold and I would get that throaty racing car roar.Just get some beer cans, jubilee clips and Holts exhaust goo.
