In the process of restoring my 1998 TX 270.

Cleaned and repacked the silencer, I noticed that there was no seal between the silencer and middle box and the middle box and down pipe, there was some rubber on the middle box section that connects to the silencer, but this was in a bit of a mess. Should there be a seal between each section of the exhaust and

any idea what the melted rubber on the middle box section was.

Thank you in advance

Andy

Andy,

There should be special high-temp o-rings (usually an orange color) inside the female connections of the mid-muffler and final silencer.
