how many of you who use these engines have had the problem with the muffler halfs not expanding evenly, and the back half turning?, mine has done that with two dirffent mufflers


ps. i know i can't spell

Spelling is secondary....modeling is first and formost

Can you apply some high temp silicon where they meet and then tighten the bolt. I had an OS who would always loose the back half - and now it doesn't

i' ll try it but i think the main part of the problem is the baffle

I have an Evo 1.00 as well as a Tower 46 with the same problem. I fixed the Tower using Hi Temp Locktite. It fixed the problem for sure. But I cant get it back apart to turn the outlet. The Evo, I fixed with Hi temp silicone. That is working well, but I have not tried to take that one back apart yet

I have two Evo 1.00nx's and both had the problem .. I fixed mine with a small sheet metal screw ... just drill a small hole where the half's meet ...make sure that you tighten the muffler well before you do or you will see a lot of black rub oil.

I have also seen this happen on the Evo .46 as well.

Here is a handy tool that I use that will install to you web browser and check your spelling
