Just got back from the exhaust shop to have the leaky donuts between the
manifolds and the "Y" pipe replaced on my B3500 exhaust.

Exhaust shop wrench says "no donuts used", shows me the book (confirm,
no donuts), and says I'm outta luck.

How do I repair this exhaust leak????

Thanx, Jeff

Muffler/tailpipe sealant. Loosen the clamps, run a bead of the stuff around
the outside edge of the flange, tighten it back up. Let it set up before
running the engine.

Find a different muffler shop !!! IF the flange is screwed up They can
weld another type in it's place
