I'd like to know what John  tells you, but I would think you have a vibration 
problem,  Ever had the prop balanced?  Last time the engine mounts were changed?

  Subject: [ercoupe-tech] Muffler won't stay tight...


  I had a problem a while back with my muffler coming loose every few 
  hours of flying. I could become disconcerting because when it came 
  loose the engine sounded very different, causing me great concern. At 
  the last annual, two weeks ago, I had the mechanic replace the 
  muffler clamps with new $60 ones from Univair. I flew 9 hours last 
  weekend to Knoxville and as we returned the engine sounded funny 
  again. After landing I looked and the right stack had come completely 
  out of the muffler!

  Any ideas of why the muffler won't stay tightly clamped onto the stacks?

  Thanks!
