Hello again everyone,
(there should be some sort of rule against posting - or encountering - more than one problem per day..!)
Have not yet returned to rechecking fuel pressure. Instead lifted car to replace all four (US/stock exhaust) exhaust gasket "donuts". After the obligatory bolt shearing on removal, removed the connector pipe, converter, and muffler. Removed old exhaust gasket donuts - challenge unto itself - & cleaned flanges well. Reinstalled with all new F gaskets (from Ferr UK) and...the muffler & tips are now slightly shifted to the left.
On further consideration, seems the converter gaskets are slightly "thicker" than the ones I removed, accounting for 1/4" misalignment.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? Anre there any provisions for "recentering" the muffler? There are currently no shim washers on either side bracket & seems hangers "float" to either side?
Goodness thought (excepting removal of old gaskets) this was going to be an easy one.
Thanks once again,
Carl
