Default Exhaust tips part 2

I posted about my tips the other day and when I took them off the rubber exhaust hose that is between the manifold and the tip was melted on the inside. What could have causd this there is pleanty of water flowing with the exhaust. Is this a possible problem in the past or is it something I should look at .

Thanks ,JIM

How old???

If they've been on there a long, long time, they virtually grow together.

It also could have overheated at some point and the exhaust could have run dry.

Or you could try a local shop. I got mine locally from a rubber shop. Just call around and ask if they carry marine exhaust, you'll usually find it, and at a good bit cheaper then other places.

I have a 28" section of 4" w/wire, brand new, left over from my recent exhaust changeover. Hate to throw it away...will donate to the cause if you pay shipping.

Lemme no,

You can get reducers, but might be cheaper to get smaller hose.

Reducers will work, but that's one more thing to leak/rust and look like crap.

Why ain't you upgradin' to 4"? That's what I did...
