Trouble getting cat-to-downpipe joint to seal
Hi all,
I fitted a new Lambda sensor today, but the old one was so badly rusted into place I had to remove the cat and use a very lengthy breaker bar to get it to shift. New Lambda is in, car runs fine, except for the fact that the cat>downpipe joint is blowing. It has the two swaged flange sections with the sealing ring between them, all surfaces were slightly pitted and rusty but were sealing just fine before I dismantled it. Does anyone have any tips on how to get it to seal nicely again? Or am i looking at a new cat and downpipe to get a clean seal?
