Downpipe nut
« on: 06 August, 2026, 05:33:57 PM »
The exhaust downpipe nut on my V!!th keeps coming loose.   It is a good nut that I had made many years ago and has a good thread and a copper/"asbestos" ring gasket in it.   Is there a cunning plan to stop this?   Will threadlock survive the heat perhaps?

Thanks, Don, I'll make a note of it because I am leaving early on Wednesday so will not get it in time.
