Default Exhaust problems...

I have a small? problem with my Revo 3.3. It seems that the gap between the exhaust header and the pipe (where the blue rubber is w. 2 zipties) is leaking fuel. At least I get quite a bit of fuel building up at this area. So whats wrong? And how do I fix it? thanks in advance.

(Also, dont want to make a new thread, but I manged to tear my antenna, is it hard to solder a new one onto the receiver? THANKS)

Are you proficient at soldering? If so, it's easy. If not, it's hard and there's a good chance you will make a mess of things. Better to let someone help you.

tighten your exhaust zip-ties. it's not so much fuel as left over oil from the fuel. as for the antenna, strip the plastic back a half inch on the severed ends, and twist them together. finish with the previously mentioned heat shrink, or just put some tape on it.
