Joe Afonso Posted January 14, 2019 Report Posted January 14, 2019 Greetings, I need a number 2 cylinder exhaust stack for my vintage 1962 Mooney, mine is cracked, thanks in advance Quote
Hank Posted January 15, 2019 Report Posted January 15, 2019 You can always send them to a certified exhaust shop for inspection and repair. There's another thread on this right now, complete with pictures of multiple rusted, cracked and broken exhausts that have been repaired. Quote
carusoam Posted January 15, 2019 Report Posted January 15, 2019 Joe, Got a pic? The first tubes coming out after the exhaust valves experience a fair amount of thinning... Especially if the O360 never got an engine monitor... (could be just my personal experience) The coolest thing about aviation exhaust welding shops... their repairs look a lot like brand new parts when they are done... down to exact specifications too... The Best part of that experience, their prices aren’t anywhere as bad as the usual new stuff... Look up exhaust welding around here for some examples... While you are looking into your exhaust system, be familiar with exhaust cracks inside the muffler. Source of CO. Also be aware of CO monitors... they are good for your health. Best regards, -a- Quote

Best regards, -a- Yes, that’s how I discovered the crack, co2 detector turned black enroute, I shutoff heat and opened all air vents, I forgot how bad teeth your can chatter. sent part to wag aero and luckily they had a replacement part at a reasonable price, mine was unrepairable, their my hero!

TexMooney Posted January 29, 2019 Report Posted January 29, 2019 My exhaust came off a 1966 M20C. I will have to look it over to see what the condition is. I don't need it as I purchased it with the engine and already have a complete set up. Quote
Joe Afonso Posted January 30, 2019 Author Report Posted January 30, 2019 How much are you looking for? Quote
TexMooney Posted January 31, 2019 Report Posted January 31, 2019 Sorry don't get on the forum as often as I would like to. I still need to inspect the exhaust system then I'll get back to you on price. Quote
