The sequence of the replacement procedure is as follows:

  1. The muffler is connected to the resonator through an O-ring on the pipe flare. Plus, the connection is compressed with a clamp, which consists of two parts.
  2. The clamp must be dismantled, so remove the ring. Since the O-rings here use graphite, they should not stick to the metal.
  3. Now the old muffler can be easily dismantled.
  4. Be sure to check the condition of the suspension rubber bands located on different sides of the muffler housing. They often turn out to be stretched or covered with cracks. Rubber bands are cheap enough, so buy new ones and replace the old ones.
  5. The new muffler is first mounted on rubber bands, after which it is inserted into the also new sealing graphite ring between the flares. Clamp the connection with a clamp. Ready!
