May be a simple question, but how do you know if you have an exhaust leak? Can you feel it. Hear it. Smell it. Was wondering about the gaskets off the head.
would the old trick of using a long screwdriver and putting one end on where you suspect the leak and your ear on the handle work on this? i know it works when trying to find out if your alt./water pump/P.S. pump/main berring is going out....not sure if it works with exhaust leaks (might make a different tone on the screwdriver...)
I've used the smoke from a cigarette to detect exhaust leaks. Hold the cigarette close or blow some smoke around the clamp area while raising the RPMs.
