And when the paste hardens, drive it to the muffler shop.
Yep, all it is is a temporary fix
and it's flammable.
When the paste hardens, drive to the dealership and buy a freaking new vehicle.
A quick fix,,,,but a slop job,,, a waste of money if you plan on keeping the vehicle!!!!
@@rustynail7866 It was a proper exhaust cement. Not flammable. The ones I've used are a silicate material. They dry to form a cement like substance.
This reminds me of when I was a student back in the 70's. Car always smelt of Gun gum and Isopon.
It's amazing what we could do with an empty campbell's soup can and a pair of hose clamps lol
@@bortz0230 damn lmao! I been there!!!
Besides the fact that a complete seal was not achieved by applying the paste...the original reason the muffler cracked then broke completely in two pieces was because the muffler/exhaust system IS NOT properly secured...when you slam the car door and the whole system shakes and moves back and forth is my proof...this system will violently shake itself to pieces again...this bandaid fix will fail...most likely within the first trip....
Engine mounts that
if its a total beater then i guess its ok to do it that way.....i woulda had a guy weld a piece of pipe in there where it broke from the flex pipe to the exhaust pipe....only would been a inch or so
Ur correct cuz mine just broke due to driving by a hole and slamming down on it
I tried this kind of repair with different materials and thats what happened to me too. Once you accelerate hard or break hard the pipe will break free inside the patch and start moving again and leak. These patches are only good for holes, not disconnected parts.
@@davidscaife4312 why?
Fair play to him I tried the same method but could not get the jubilee clip screw thread to wind back in as the circumference was too large. Good video.
For people not having very much to spend this is a good way for a while or one can double up on the material once the first ones done and remove the clamp and redo
Its absolutely not Robert 😂
My mechanic used this cheap fix. Nope didn't even last 3 days both times.
@techtactics788 you need a new mechanic. I personally used the Holt's gun gum repairs to get my car through its MOT over 6 months ago, still no blowing whatsoever.
Doesn't even last as long as I do in bed 😂 (Gone in 60 seconds)
👀💀🤣😂😂😂
🤣😂🤣😂☠️☠️
It will not last 3 months.
You saw the exhaust smoke coming out.
This job is worst than a mickey mouse garage. 😂
That's what i just said, what a fuckin cowboy 🙄 a thin clamp that barely fits over the crack between them under pressure is going to not last long at all, they might as well have just thrown the money they paid for the kit in the bin for what it's worth! There's no substitute for a weld join, although that's a bit overkill, or a new silencer, paste and proper clamp, these bloody cowboys with their cheap as products for stupid money are ruining qualified tradesmen's business!
@@adriantroalic9298 some cowboys know better I bet.
your video helped me a lot couldnt find the gun gum but I use the kinda smilar product and covered with a aliminum cover 👌 loud noise is gone
Lol people been staring at me driving mine for a while! I found some exhaust seal putty stuff at advanced auto!
I jus gooped that stuff on driver side pipe! If it doesn’t work I’ll hav pipe secure spot welded. Then try again! Lol!
Car from up north…rusty underneath !
To do a repair like that I got a exhaust pipe adapter and fit it inside the resonator (the part where the pipe broke off), and using an exhaust pipe expander, expanded it out so it was expanded against the inner pipe in the resonator. This effectively replaced the pipe end that broke off the resonator, and allowed me to attach the rest of the exhaust to this new 'stem'. I also tack welded the expanded pipe into the resonator from the inside of the pipe, purposely blowing through the pipe to make sure there was some bonding, but I don't think that was needed. To that end I have never had much luck with the exhaust sealant as it seems to crumble over time.
Thanks. I like that method.
I still see a leak. Cheap and easy fix I did on mine... Steel wool double layered, held in place with furnace tape. (Furnace tape is only to hold the steel wool, otherwise it wouldn't last a couple of hours on the exhaust). Then layer aluminum sheeting over the steel wool using furnace tape to hold the sheeting in place so you can add a clamp or two. Works great and lasts a long time. Aluminum sheeting may need 2 - 4 layers depending on the hole.
@bryce colwell Yup. Helps the aluminum last longer as well. I have one that's been on for over a year and still going strong.
Far better repair what you mentionthan this video showing us how to put icing on an exhaust pipe :)
You ain't working on my car.
@@bradw778 hey I'm fixing one now hope it works
Hey PM me I want to try your way
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Im dying watching this .
Hallarious !
Wow! I never new it was so easy to waste 20$ and 2 hrs.
I have wasted more than 20$ in two hours.
Firstly you must repair the cause of the exhaust break. Looks like the motor mounts are busted. After that is repaired then you fix the exhaust with a new flex pipe. Cut and weld a new one. This repair is just a temporary fix.
way too much movement going on. i suspect your right the engine mounts are bust.
As someone who lost a nephew to an exhaust leak, I support this message.
@@MrJohnthefarmer how you lost him?
@@solidfuel0 He fell asleep on the way back from the Santa Clause Parade. When he didn't get out of the car, Dad gave the keys to the oldest child and said start the car so he doesn't get cold. He never woke up.
@@MrJohnthefarmer :( is very peaceful way to go. my leak is after the cat under the car thankfully
I’ve done this for a couple years until I could afford the $800 exhaust I needed 😅
My uncle did it, lasted 99 years.
I've used muffler cement in the past to hold me over until I got new exhaust parts. It was still okay when I got the new exhaust pipe weeks later. Not pretty but it works.
I'm in tears @ 3:10 🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭
Why exactly ? I dont get it 😅😅
Idk this whole video had me dying. As soon as he pulled out a hose clamp and some glue.
I’ve used the gun gum paste and exhaust wrap on my motorcycle. It’s been nearly 24 hours. The paste is hard but when I’ve just fired it up there’s smoke coming from where the paste is. Is it normal ?
Never would have broken if the exhaust would have properly been secured . Way too much flexing in the exhaust system
Ha ha love the British Siri Voice over❣️But seriously this is good for a quick fix as a point A to point B situation. Might get past the auction crew. Cheep shot for a quick sale but if you let them know the exhaust needs work at the point of sale no harm no foul. Caveat Emptor
Caveat emptor - buyer beware !!! 😇
@@fridaym1748 lol
Good job !
Of course your comment is satire 😂
For temporary yes. Still leak when starting the engine. Good form!
That engina sounds like a champ!!
A real man uses a beer can. Save the $5 and buy a six pack.
Bro this video is so on point, i just noticed my car has the same problem, thank you! #subscribed
The British accent makes it so much better
He must be related to my plumber.
First time watching a do it yourself video about cars, learnt so much. so easy to follow. Like how you don't assume we have previous knowledge or know all the steps.Because I am a fan of manyautosltd.com/exhaust-repair Spot in service as always chaps, really appreciate the great and fast work in my car repair!
I think hes related to a plasterer
Ha ha ha
He's actually a drywaller.
Back in the early 80's I had a Ford Grenada and it was flex pipe from the Y pipe right through to the tail end. Nothing wrong with it but it would have to be tinkered with from time to time.
It completes the definition of polish proverb: cleaning an asshole with broken glass.
This is the best repair I’ve ever seen in my life
😂 idk if your being sarcastic or not
Don't get out much do you?
I actually tried some ceramic stuff from pep boys when I was young. Bring gs back memories, bad ones😂.
Che lavoro da carpentiere. Nulla togliere al loro lavoro. Li andava sostituito tutto.
Reading many better recos for beer cans. Better than video's potsticker paste LoL. In 70s-80s, steel Campbell soup cans + clamps worked for 1yr, substitute for $400
dual exhaust-resonator systems on 66 Tbird 390 and 70 Bonneville 455. The cars were only worth a few hundred bucks. Several hundred pints of soup, now unfortunately I have high BP
genuinely shocked your motor hasn't fallen out on the road somewhere
I had a car that did as a kid. I think that changed my entire life. Now 54 yrs old iv amased a nice collection of Audi and Jags. Gotta admit it was fun as a kid
The braided metal is torn & coming off on mine. Will that impact motor acceleration performance?
Still sounds like a tank once completely hardened
Good job..
And all that did was make sure that in the future you HAVE to replace the flex pipe because you can no longer weld to that end of it.
Thanks 😊
This looks like something I would have tried when I was 18, had no money, and knew absolutely nothing about cars. Maybe next time try some gorilla glue. Lol. There's obviously a leak in the flex pipe itself. Until motor mounts are replaced it will probably shake the whole car apart.
Much simpler to chop out the flexi - and with a couple of exhaust clamps...........Job done.
U don't know size of flexi that's needed do you?
This is an emergency repair and not meant to last all that long. It certainly should hold long enough till you can afford to get it repaired correctly.
i used furnace cement and didnt even let it cure like i should bc i was in a hurry lasted a full year just redid it the "right way" it should out last the pipe around it id buy new converters if ny wast stoopid and wants me to pay 1200 for converters in another year i wont need to worry about emissions anyway its getting straight piped just shows how dumb the laws actually are lol
Legend says that the paste is still hardening
... 2 months later and it's still hardening, Legend was correct.
We'll have to wait for the next confirmation
Beautiful
Are you in Miami?
Looks good to me
This is absolute emergency repair for the broke budget person, it won't last very long, its temp repair.
I can do better temp repair with soup can and hose clamps, or better yet get a new flex pipe and put it on, then it will last very long time.
Quick fixes never last
Open pack, read all instructions carefully then throw it all in the bin.
Save your money. Years ago on clutch job had cut exhaust. I used beer can with top & bottom cut off & 2 water hose clamps on pick-up tk. I used that for years only replacing blow out can ever few months. Until finally putting new dual exhaust on it. True story.
Engine mounts next 😲
You can use a tub of Elmer's glue and 4 medium sized bouncy balls to repair engine mounts. (Easy repair WITHOUT DISMANTLING!)
How about you fix what caused the flex pipe to break in the 1st place? Like maybe a broken motor mount or secure your exhaust system so it doesn’t shake like that? Been a mechanic for 35 years. Non of that stuff lasts! Welding is the only way to go!
Don’t do it!
Been a mechanic for 27 years and these flexs tend to suffer from fatigue and are a known weak spot, not necessarily due to a mount failure etc, they experience a certain amount of flex naturally hence why they are there and with heat, cold heat cold they rot through
Could this be Welded as well?
good
You can never have too many stands. Safer the better
Looks like a big messy, pain in the a** job to me, that's made even more difficult by not having a proper hydraulic lift to get the vehicle up high enough off of the ground to work on it. (I've spent countless hours under my cars, over the years, using only jackstands and it can be a huge hassle.) I wouldn't trust the longevity of this repair either. Seems like a cheap and temporary fix at best. I personally wouldn't waste my time and money on such a repair, but i do understand that sometimes you have to do the best that you can with what you've got and with what you can afford.
Wow!
I would only do this in a desperate situation never going to last but good video
It should keep you running for the last 20 mins of any Mad Max movie
If your paste stays hard for more than 24 hours, call your doctor… I mean your mechanic
How not to repair an exhaust leak!!
Chévere 👍
I used this when I was young and had no money. This never holds. As you see on the video it leaks now already. Maybe when you want to sell the car you can do this. But always be honust to the buyer.
Remember radweld? That was only a temporary fix, but they advertised it as a permanent one 🙄 but this is just disgraceful, these guys are friggin cowboys, why would anyone in their right mind put a clamp barely larger than the crack over the top and then hope that this overly priced heat activated stuff holds it? 🙄 Bonkers!
@@adriantroalic9298 it works fine warm up the car before hand and let the paste sit for 30min or longer then start her back up
paste.?...i used perforated sheet rock tape smothered in high temperature furnace cement..works like a charm..
Can you advise me on how to do this?
Druciarstwo w najgorszym wydaniu.
The Epoxy Steel paste is best for this alteration joint.
I'd check the engine mounts
My car failed inspection due to exhaust and garage told me my flex hose has a hole in it. Now I am curious to look. Too bad it's December instead of August. Nice way to get pneumonia laying on the ground.
When I see a repair video that looks like I'm the one who put it together, I worry 😂.
Notice the big puff of smoke coming out of the pipe where the "repair" was made. I can't believe that is a real product. Does the maker also sell red tape to "fix" broken tail lights? LOL!
Bad engine mount cause the broken Flexi joint perhaps?
Thats diesel motor it does vibrate more
I gotta do this on my flexi pipe. Just a temporary fix till payday before I can payout for a new pipe to be fitted. But in the meantime hopefully it quietens it down enough to not attract attention 😅
If I leave my car like that will it cause any damage? Kinda like how it sounds
Good luck with that. 10 minutes or 10 miles whatever comes first. Ahh!! memories.
What are you on about its been 3 years since this was done and it's still going strong🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just slap.some flex tape
And there ya go!… good for a day or two!!
En 2 a 3 dias en reparacion de nuevo.
I do Hillbilly repairs too! But my car is 17 y/o and it is G-6 Detroit car. SALT!!!!!! I get two tall boy beer cans cut the ends sleeve it over the damaged parts and 3 hose clamps. It will get me 6 months and quiets it down enough to avoid JOHNNY LAW ! Hell I even then hand it with a drill hole and DOG CHAIN to lower the pressure. Taking it to my shade tree mechanic to evaluate the motor and transmission. If he says the motor still ok. I spend the 300 bucks and get a new exhaust via a license dealer. 19 moths left on my wifes payment book on her 2018 Buick Encore. Then it is my turn. I never had two car payments at once. Been very lucky. ( Once, my 1990 ford ranger motor let go at 369K with ORGINAL clutch on the night of my wifes second complete payment book. Send the payoff check 4 hours before! Original Ford Escape x'ed out via DRUNK ASSHAT!!! Wife ok. ) I might be out of luck this time!
It never works too much weight and movement in the exhaust. Maybe last a mile.
By the sound of that engine i think he should be less worried about an exhaust lol
Mayor chapuceriaaa.. LOOOOOOOL!!!
I can feel the pain
When the flat earthers couldn't find the edge of the world.
Did many repairs like this on my exhaust when I was a teenager and broke, I give it a week LOL
They sound tired, breathing hard as hell!!😂😂😂
....and finally, repeat every two weeks.
Temporary fix. Why not?
Hmmmm the way the engine sounds it's not gonna hold up very long!! And YES definitely get some exhaust hangers to support it!!
why not weld the engine to the frame? and weld the exhaust too! no more problem!
haha it's still leaking.... = FAILED SAFETY AND EMISSION INSPECTION
it does look like its leaking, doesn't it?
More trouble than I want to go through! But, thanks for the upload! Question, just how long is this fast easy fix supposed too last! You lost me on jacking up the car! Lol
Well if you leave it in the driveway it could last for years. 😂😂
In our next video we'll be replacing the BROKEN MOTOR MOUNT
No, in the next video we'll be welding up the engine 🤣🤣🤣
@@adriantroalic9298 engine is fixed to the engine mount why would you weld it.
Yaaaaa this is done by a non mechanic in his garage...surprised..a cut open pop can wasn't used
No this is a person demonstrating a product that has instructions
I did a temporary 'bodge' fix like this but used an old bake bean can cut along its length and jubilee clipped on at each end to join a break in my exhaust, I used the exhaust bandage under the can and plenty of high melting point exhaust seal cement between the pipe and bandage and between the bandage and can!
The result was a strong leak free repair that lasted until my next MOT, the mechanic just laughed at my repair and failed it on that, so had to get a new exhaust anyway! 😳😲⚠️😁
How much did that run you?
@@Officialjaleb It didn't cost much, it was a few years ago now, I seem to remember it was about £4 for a kit, Holts Gum Gum bandage / tape and it came with a tube of cement.
The bake bean can was free, out of the bin and I already had a couple of old jubilee clips that I just reused.
The kit was basically useless on it's own, it was only meant to be a temporary repair anyway.
But the bake bean can helped to reinforce it all and keep the bandage from coming undone!
Once it all heated up it sealed my exhaust leak up good but my MOT tester was not impressed! ⚠️😳😁
Cheaper than a new back box and fitting, which I eventually had to do anyway to pass the MOT.
@@pdtech4524 ok thanks I will keep this in mind
@Chase Williams Yeah my repair was solid and gas tight but my MOT tester wasn't impressed at all⚠️😊
The bean can just strengthened the whole joint and kept the exhaust bandage sealed around the break, the jubilee clips did their thing perfectly.
I dare say it would have lasted years but it was only intended as a temporary bodge repair until I got a new backbox.
Kick him in the spuds, if it's secure and gas tight, it should pass. I've just had mine sail through with a bean tin bodge, they actually talked me _out_ of replacing the section.
lol,,, the smoke is not a good sign, gave it a thumbs up cause it showed me what not to do
Well nice ah... try, It still leaks but the noise is reduced I guess thats the whole point
Sensacional
Couldn't have spelled it better myself
Just fix it the right way!
Sure i saw smoke when you started the engine.
its leaking i know
ganz7ful it’s called hill billy fixing
4:04
Sir you are going to make it
And when you’re finished with that, fill the car full of oil filters and brake rotors, and take it to the metal recyclers!
Come to Missouri I'll fail it on state inspection
Holy cow man
Wire weld in less time good to go secure it from moving around hanger is broken or missing
