Guest Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Sprung a couple of small rust holes in my downpipe - anyone got any ideas to repair temporarily until I can afford the new downpipe? Cheers!! Quote
Tiggie Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 gungum, about 3quid for a tin in halfords, maybe combine it with the gungum exhaust wrap as sometimes it can drop out Quote
Guest Posted May 10, 2013 Posted May 10, 2013 Thanks guys, I dont have a halfords near me, but Ill try the local parts shop - although I doubt they will stock anything so "sophisticated" haha(I live in north wales!!!) Quote

Tango Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Never had a lot of success with Gun-Gum.......but had a plate welded over a large hole in the downpipe on an old TS185 I had.......painted over with black high temp paint......worked a treat and only cost a couple of quid...... Quote
