Exhaust system components - re‐
move and install
Note
♦
Removing and installing exhaust manifold
⇒ page 101
♦
After repairing the exhaust system, check that there is no volt‐
age and the clearance with the body is sufficient. When re‐
quired, loosen double clamp (or clamps) and align silencer and
exhaust tube so that sufficient body clearance is maintained,
and the weight is evenly distributed on the supports.
♦
Always replace self-locking nuts.
WARNING
Always replace self-locking nuts and screws subject to angular
torque
