  1. Okay so I have a old thrush glass pack on my pathy and I'm thinking of getting a new one and want to run a straight pipe with side dump pipe that dumps out under the rear driver side door.I posted this on another forum under the wrong gen pathy and I was told that the glass pack is not a spark arrester and is illegal by the forest service and I could get a fine.

    I have never heard of this other then on dirt bikes and ATV's.

    Any help.

    Thanks

  2. So my pathy has a ol' Thrush glass pack on it now and its pretty loud but every once in the while I notice on slow pick ups it sounds like a diesel going down the road or a old ford gas tractor(with a straight pipe).So I'm thinking I will go up to a 2.25 or 2.5 pipe thats coming out the side in front of the back door on the driver side.Is there any heat problems with the fuel lines or any thing that you gotta worry about?

  3. Check the vac line on the rear of the intake on top of the engine.Some thing for fuel presser I think not sure.When I got mine it was unplugged and did what yours did.I put it back on and this past summer it fell off when washing the engine so I was like WTF is wrong :scratchhead: with it.Looked back there and it was gone.Went to the local parts store and they wanted a buck for the hose(maybe 4 inchs long) :thumbsdown: I then left and pulled one off of my old 307 thats sitting in my garage.

  4. Okay so I have a 95 'finder with the v-6 and automatic.I had the water pump,t-belt and cam seals replaced about 10,000 miles ago and now its makeing noise.Its coming from the front of the engine. At first I thought it was my tranny going out since it gets louder as the RPMs go higher.The noise by the way is a higher pitch whine that is anoying and makes the truck sound like crap.

    Also I sprayed the belts with belt dressing and it stoped for about 3 seconds.

    So now I'm thinking its a belt.Then I checked my power steering fluid level and it was a little low.I filled it up and nothing changed.Also I already new that it wasnt the problem since it didnt get louder when I turned the wheel.

    So then I loosened the power steering belt then it got louder.Could it be the belt or maybe a bearing as wheel?

    Any help is nice, Thanks.
