exhaust problems

[Mic1438]

I blew a big hole in my exhaust and all i have left is a 400 ex stock exhaust. I was wondering if it would fit and run? just till i get enough money for a new one.

400ex is a 4stroke so it wont work well.

a 2 stroke needs the back pressure created by the large chamber, if u run a straight pipe you will burn up your rings and possibly piston

lol..naaa i dont think it would work to well! how the hell did you blow a hole in your pipe?

^ thats what i was wonderin...

weld a chunk of sheet metal over the hole.

 

[blasterfreek30]

where's the hole? if it's at a straightish portion of the pipe, use a coke can and some hose clamps to bandaid it.
if not, you can try using some real hi-temp jb weld.
i had the same issue, i think it was from runnin the g3 reeds w/ the stock pipe.....had a small leak at the first bend and i used some jb weld and good to go! of course, i've installed an f7 since then.

is the hole in the head pipe or the silencer? if its in the silencer it will not affect the rings/piston, its the head pipe that would become a concern.
