m671054 Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 Anyone ever try a speedy sleeve on the exh snout to tighten up a loose fit? I know some seal surfaces get chewed up by loose pipes and are tough to get sealed again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TulsaGasser Posted June 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 *UPDATE* new O-ring kit and springs came in from amazon. Shipped was 12.99... Thank you prime. The old orings weren't torn, marked, or beat up in any way. Placed the new ones in the pipe and then spent the next hour trying to get the pipe on the cylinder. Finally gave up. I picked up the old orings and then went with some red RV silicone on the pipe. That, along with new springs, has a much tighter fit. There is no way that the pipe with the new orings was going on the cylinder. I actually tried greasing it up and trying that and still couldn't get it on. I ended up taking some material off the first oring to see if that helped and still no luck. I'll keep an eye out for any leaks on the pipe and continue to silicone. Not fun and I've never had this issue before but I've always ran pro circuit on my bikes. Next thing I would like to do is find some aftermarket intake boots so that I can ditch the ones with the capped off hole from the boost bottle. Anybody know where I can find some?

special06shee Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 That is because you ordered oem o-rings. Shearer uses a smaller diameter o-ring then what oem is. All you have to do is sand the new o-rings with some emery cloth. You want it to be a snug fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
