At the junctionwhere the v-band clamp joins the pipe and exhaust manifold there is an exhaust leak.
I have just replaced the rubber bushings holding the lower part of the exhaust to the engine as well as had the stud in the exhaust manifold machined off since it had broken. Put it all back together and have an exhaust leak.
Should I put two of the copper plates in to take up any excess clearance there? All surfaces are very clean. Possibly the clamp needs to be replaced but it looks to be in good shape.
Your advice is greatly appreciated - thanks in advance.
