Oh my! First you drove right past us. We have been in Sioux Falls for a couple of days, headed from here to Belvedere, then to Custer.

Curse Newell for limited access to this region. I don’t know how tall you are and how long your arms might be. A normal guy like me could barely reach the wire ties on the blanket to get it off.

First hint, clamp the radiator surge tank hose going into the over flow reservoir and get it out of the way. Zero access without doing that.

Your leak could be from the clamp where the turbo enters the exhaust pipe. The second place is at the bottom of the exhaust pipe. Right at the deck level, there is a short piece of flex (6 inch?) connected to short straight exhaust pipe connected to the muffler. That piece of flex is known to come loose and / or burn through. It is nigh impossible to access. If that is the leak, I have snuck an exhaust band clamp into that opening and made a temp repair.

You are going to have to dissect before coming up with a plan cause right now the leak location is unknown. Post pics when you have them. 817 223 2056

So I got it apart today..  got the muffler out, turbo pipe off, and the blanket out.

If failed at the flex pipe. So tomorrow I’m on the way to Napa to get new flex pipe and some clamps. 

Pictures to come tomorrow
