FMF Gnarly Pipe

Re: fmf fatty pipe

8 is the head gasket, 12 is the base gasket. if it's the head gasket leaking, you will only need #8, if 12 is leaking I would replace both, but leave the intake/reed cage together if it's all sealed up

Re: fmf fatty pipe

its the base. do i need to take the head off to get the base off, or do i have to take the whole engine out?

Re: fmf fatty pipe

you don't have to pull the engine, but I would pull the gas tank off, and give it a good cleaning before disassembly so that no dirt or anything can get in there.


I have pulled the jug off with the head still attached without pulling the tank or anything, but it'll make your life a lot easier.


put in a fresh exhaust donut while you're there as well.

Re: fmf fatty pipe

if it's sealed up you don't have to, leak test it before doing anything else so you know 100% where it's leaking at.


the exhaust donut is the exhaust gasket

i looked at the head gasket, and its bone dry, so shoul i buy both?

 

[brandoz28]

Re: fmf fatty pipe

I would recommend doing it all, but leak test it so you know 100% for sure it's not leaking at the head gasket. you don't HAVE to take the head off, but I think that I would do it for peace of mind
