Title: Silencer clamp size ?
Post by: Speedy1959 on Friday, 29 September 2017, 02:54 PM
Hi All,

My right silencer seems slack even though the clamp is tightened to the max (Left silencer is tight without being to the max).
Can someone please tell me the size of clamp I need for the standard twin silencer set up.

Thanks in advance,

S

Offhand I don't know, but think it's stamped on the body of the clamp.

If its a bit loose though it may be the gasket on the end of the collector box has flattened and may need replacing rather than needing a new clamp.

Thanks for that.
as a precaution I have ordered 2 clamps and 2 gaskets....

On a related point I must say I am extremely impressed with how fast Fowlers dispatch ordered parts.
on Wednesday tea time I ordered a new clutch push rod (mine is quite corroded)..
On Thursday afternoon it arrived at my place of work.

Brilliant service in my opinion.
