Re: [MBZ] OT It has an exhaust leak on the front two cylinders and new gaskets didn’t fix it. 1966 Piper pa-28-140,$52,000

I've got a welder, can fix that up right quick!

As I recall there is a heater box around the exhaust that blows air over 
the pipe to get cabin heat so that might affect air quality in the cabin!

Time to remove the exhaust and check it for cracks.. repair as necessary,
properly, by a certified FAA weld shop.
