tywill Posted October 3, 2011 Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 Hi I have purchased a 2nd hand exhaust for my TY250D from america, and need some advise on removing carbon/ oil deposits from the in side of the exhaust. I read some where that heating the exhaust on a bbq can burn off these deposits, but I am concerned that the heat might distort the exhausts shape. Is it ok to heat my exhaust on a bbq? Many Thanks, Will Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattylad Posted October 3, 2011 Report Share Posted October 3, 2011 Simple answer is yes no problems. Issues are with aluminium ones ( they can melt) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmer Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 i reckon they'd go well with a bit of salad and some barbeque sauce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliechitlins Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 I once cleaned one with an oxy-acetylene torch. Set the insides on fire with a dirty flame (not too much oxy), then switch off the acetylene and just pump oxy in to keep things burning, Great pest control. BTW...I have a free-standing vise OUTSIDE my workshop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

feetupfun Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Thats always worked for me Too ... Although mine were done on/in a 55gal burn barrel ... Yes I use an oxy torch for this too and one time I had to take the oxygen out for a short time. When it went back in the resulting boom was most satisfying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
