88 civic si exhaust pipe cracked...
88 civic si exhaust pipe cracked all the way around the diameter of
the pipe. Location: just to the right of the clamp that holds the long pipe onto the muffler, ie: just upwind of the muffler. Can this be welded or can a sleeve be put on it or will the whole long pipe need to be replaced? Anything else I can do? The muffler is not totally secure now. Any idea about cost for fixing this? thanks very much for all the info Eric |

Any repair like that usually won't last, though. If you only need it to last a couple of weeks or months, it should be fine. But plan on buying new exhaust parts in the near future. Find a small exhaust shop and talk to them about it. Most of those guys will weld it up quick for a minimal amount of cash, because they're quite sure you'll be back. -k |
