eddie1 Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 I am sure that there are easier ways but this is what I did.I Cut the back and front of the silencer off with a hacksaw having made sure that I scribed a clear line on them for alignment afterwards. The silencer was almost completely blocked in the front section so got a blow lamp on it for a while and then wire brushed the holes in the baffle plate until they were clean. The silencer was then welded back up and resprayed Having seen the amount of carbon in there and how solid it was I am glad that I opened it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleanorbust Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 As I recall back in the day I cut off the last two inches of the silencer by sawing through the outer skin, then cut four or five slots in the side of this piece so that it could be opened out slightly and fitted as a cap over the end of the silencer. A jubilee clip around this closed up the slots so preventing leaks and securing everything in place. This created an easily removable end cap so cleaning and repacking could be done at will. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
