Exhaust

This is a little out of sequence. I actually removed the rear mufflers first of all,and then removed the front end of the exhaust after the rear end was stripped. But it makes more sense to show the pictures in this order.

Unscrew the rear muffler bold from the support, and basically just wiggle it off




On the LHS, this soft metal coupler came off as intended as a separate item



Not so on the right, where the coupler is stuck in tighter than a tight thing:


No matter. Gonna buy a new exhaust anyway ;-) The top end of the exhaust comes out quite easily:

 These are spacers, and the exhaust mounting clamps push them into the exhaust gaskets that in on the cylinder head itself, so not in this picture:

Here's the front end, removed and propped against one of my wife's objet's d'art:


Various pix of the engine now the exhaust is removed. You can see the exhaust gasket now.



Nasty leaks
