I just put a set of Remflex exhaust gaskets on my '74 Canyonlands. As suspected, both sides had been leaking from
Autozone gaskets with less than 1000 miles on them. While we were at it, we also replaced the donuts on both sides, as we suspected they were also leaking. We installed it all and when we fired it up for testing, the Remflexes were tight...however, both of the donuts were leaking. Both sides are tight to their shoulder bolts with good springs installed. I can't pull them any tighter. Is there some way to get them to seal that I'm missing?
