figured while i was askin ya'll some questions i'd post a clip of my exhaust since everyone loves to hear how other peoples exhausts sound...

Exhaust info: '89 GTUs stock manifold with 2.5" to hi-flo cat to Corksport 3" catback

Also i made a new game... it's called NAME THAT SEAL!!! oh wait... don't get too excited... and yes... you can play too... just d/l the video but 56k beware it's 22.3mb!!!

Seal piece info: found floating in the coolant resevoir

::ugh::

any ideas??

 

The file is pretty big... but it's worth it... promise...

 

omg 22.3 MB for 33 seconds of vid?!?!

CS is crazy loud and sorry I can't help with the seal question.

 

What color is the pieve of seal you found floating in the tank?


If the car runs, I wouldn't worry about it! Just always watch your oil pressure, and water tempeture....

Also is it a paper gasket, or more like an RTV?



And good god, I'll never buy a CS exhaust!!! That is freakin loud....

 

you can see the seal in the video... it's black with alternating black and white sides... and i have been losing coolant internally from what i can tell... look at the video

seal is like a rubber band

 

.

 

The only thing I saw in teh video was the back of your car....

It must not have played right. But I had sound


And it sounds like your engine blew a chunk of a coolant seal....

 

the first half is of the rear of the car so i could get the smoke that usually comes out when i start it.... it then switches to me holding the piece of seal up in front of the car and showing it to the camera...

file size reduced to 10mb using mpeg4... should make it more d/l friendly

 

Is it white smoke?


If so, and you are loosing coolant, then you most likely blew a coolant seal.

 

white/blue... going to try to get video so you guys can see it and hear the sounds it makes... can't tell by myself what's happening...

 

that looks alot like a chunk of outer collent seal to me,..

 

i'll download it, but what plays "avi" files?

 

windows media player should do it

 

I have a sound file that's muuuuuuch smaller over in my last thread if anyone wants to hear the CS exhaust.

 

yeah it's big... but the point was to see the seal as well as hear the exhaust...

 

bump

 

isnt that loud at all.

 

it's pretty loud... my friend says he can hear me across my neighborhood... about a 1/3 mile, and can tell me when i go into my driveway and park
