Hello Robert,

With some assistance you can check for leaks by blocking the exhaust at
the tailpipes.  Ask someone to block both pipes with tennis balls while
the car is running and you are listening at the joints.

Good luck,

>I installed a sports Falcon muffler system on my TR6 this winter. I am
experiencing a lot of fumes inside the cockpit. I have tightened the
manifold to the head. I have tightened the flange of the first stage of
pipes to the manifold. The areas where the pipes interlock have been
crimped and the u-bolts are tightened. I cannot figure this one out. Any
ideas? Its especially bad when the top is up.
