My main worry is that it will fuse with the heat or melt.?

Is that a possibility.?

And if it does how disasterous can it turn out to be.?

Sorry for acting like a child lol, im just totally new to RC;s.

Safe enough to run. I would keep some handy just incase the ones one there now melt or slide off. You should realy replace the exhaust hanger though, but its safe enough to run for now.

Will do that.

Also (stupid question (just for my knowledge))

What does the Fuel Line Running from the top of my fuel tank leading to the exhaust do.?

Is it of great importance.?

Just curious lol.

Your first picture shows the end on a metal wire that looks like it's just "hanging in space", and it looks like the wire that slips in the end of your muffler and gets tightened down with a hex set-screw. Is that what it is?[X(] If so, just reattach it, put some Blue Loctite on the set screw, tighten it, and you should be good to go without those zip ties.[&:]
