Re: WHO CAN GIVE ME A WOF SO CAN TAKE IT FOR NEW YEARS
Fucking hell Andy, can you please try a bit harder to use proper spelling and grammer in your posts? I like to offer advise where I can, but your posts are hard to read.

The WOF guy is failing me on an exhaust leak. I mean come on, give me a break I fixed it (yes I should have fitted a new gasket) but instead I used exhaust cement. It's sealed the hole so why not slap a sticker on? It's not like im going to get pulled over and the cops are going to be like "omg who gave you this wof" and charge him. I checked it again last nite and cannot find this imaginary leak he is failing me on. I told him those dellorto carbs make a funny noise like that but he doesnt want to believe me.

Hold a rag over the exhaust pipe is it building up pressure? or does it seem to be released from somewhere.
Wof guys are pricks but usually they wont fail you unless there is a fault. sometimes they are a bit fussy but 9/10 they are just doing there job

Wasnt hassling in any way.
Did you try getting somebody to put their hand over the muffler end to see if you could hear it leaking? Just a thought.
