manifold
« on: June 19, 2013, 03:18:38 AM »
Dang my manifold has a big split in the top of it.I was wondering why the scoot was running rough.
Think ill just replace the rubber hose on it. But duck tape will have to do for now.

I tried ducktape on mine while i had a new manifold on order, didnt last more than a day or 2 then the petrol fumes going thro the manifold made the stickyness of the tape go and it leaked again. Tried glue too but tbat worked about the same.
Chaos is my co-pilot.
