I have an '01 with a passengers side exhaust leak. No, before you start typing, it's not a cracked manifold.
It was cracked, but I changed that two years ago. I had the manifold/head off again this fall and it still looks good. But somewhere along the line I've gotten a sputtering/spitting sound leak. Similar to the sound the cracked manifold makes.
Anyway... when I look at parts online I see this round ring type (crush?) gasket. But I have no idea where they're supposed to go???
Between the exhaust manifold outlet and the cat there's a triangle shaped gasket. Does the ring go in the center of this?
Or does it go somewhere after the cat? (I have a CA/NY carb compliant two cat setup)
I'm trying to figure out if the noise is from my cat/pipe rusting out OR when I changed the manifold I left that ring gasket out.
A little help please? All the diagrams I see online are tiny or don't show it.
