3-7. EXHAUST SYSTEM DAMAGE
General Information.
To repair holes or cracks in the exhaust system, holes can be brazed. If a torch is not
available, cans or similar metal items can be cut and bent to cover holes. A source for
the large clamps needed is the generator air ducting system of a nonrepairable vehicle.
Cut metal patch two to three inches wider than damaged area and secure in place with
wire or clamps. If available, an epoxy type sealer can be used to seal small cracks in
manifold.
