2002 try a 1995

[lastmiles]

@BoeingNerd no Sir. It is a 2002 Hyundai Accent GSi with about 200,000 Kms on it and it refuses to die. Also, it goes forever and ever on a tank of gas.

@lastmiles Sorry I meant I have the same problem on my 1995 integra I riveted a piece of stainless steel to it use muffler sealer from a tube and sealed the edges with aluminum tape it's worked for 2 months with no problems

You did not factor in the cost of your time...

[joehaglund]

did it fall off yet? what about the rusted metal inside? what will happen when that rusts away and is sitting in there?

[lastmiles]

@joehaglund Still solid as a rock. That versa chem stuff is getting a little flaky but the metal is rock solid. The issue now is at the other end. The exhaust manifold is leaking and I smell car exhaust while driving. Looks like I may havve to actually pay for repairs finally.
