MUFFLER CHIRP / TWEET FIXED FOR UNDER $5 IN 1/2 HOUR
Written by skyeenter on 6/26/2011 at 03:01 pm

The new inmate, Clyde, had just been introduced to his new cellmate at the
minimum security wing in Leavenworth. As they sat on the side of their bunks
getting to know one another the, Ezra, the old cellmate asked, Tell me Clyde,
what are you doing time for? Clyde without hesitation, replied, well, you know
those tags that say, Do not remove under penalty of law...

Keep you're head down, the muffler police are out there, Jim.

Depot (1/4 inch diameter and 4" long) with nylon lock nuts and washers. I
removed the chrome shield and then drilled 3 holes right through the damn thing.
I put the bolts through and tightened the nuts. Chirp noise is gone, completely
gone!

I did the first one in the center of the pipe's lenght and it did not fix it. So
I put 2 more on each end (about and 1 1/4" from the welds) lenthwise. That
worked. So you could try the end ones first or one at a time or just do three,
like me. I dont think the angle mattered, but I drilled at about 30 degrees ish
from outside to inside with the outside being higher. I only chose that angle
because it was easy to drill and the nuts wound not line up with anything and
could easily be tightened.
