Below: Installed. Put
a layer of the reflective tape on the frame as well as the tranny
pan. Frame was getting hot.
With the tape in place the frame stays cool to the touch. This
shot and the next one were taken while the system was checked
for leaks. Found a pin hole leak on a weld by the rear of the
muffler and one in a factory weld on the cat. |
