How to Find Exhaust Leaks - EricTheCarGuy

[@SkilledEddie]

I found exhaust leaks on my truck by spraying soapy water on the exhaust. I use a shop vac in the tail pipe blowing air in. When i did that large bubbles formed and it was easy to spot. Turned out to be leaking from the flange donut gaskets. It's a lot easier to do it this way because the engine isnt running so the exhaust is cool. Plus you don't have to listen for anything.

[@Tryin2FlyII]

Hey that's a slick Idea Ha! (I use the soap & water on house gas pipe never thought of this use) I always hated having to wait for the exhaust to cool before I could finish the job

[@robertprivera]

+SkilledEddie I've done that too. works great.

[@v_06_baradkaratharvavinaya70]

how long should wait exhaust to cool after turning off engine!! (approx.)

[@CT_Taylor]

At least until your engine is cool to the touch, because the exhaust components get hotter than your engine will read its temp at.

[@v_06_baradkaratharvavinaya70]

Correct thanks man

[@kstinson]

You have the ultimate "reality" mechanics channel on youtube. You put the good, the bad, and the ugly which really shows people what they are getting into with auto mechanics. Thanks!

[@persianchris2451]

QUICK NOTES: 1) Weep holes may be found at the muffler which is for water (Not a leak) so don't plug it 2) Plug mufflers with a rag to enhance any leaks and force the exhaust out of whatever is leaking (NOTE: Should be easier for you to hear & find the leak. You could also feel around areas for the leak as you'll feel the exhaust leaking out from being plugged at the muffler) 3) If found sound/leak by Exhaust Manifold: A) Tighten up Fasteners on Exhaust Manifold to see if that resolves it or B) Replace the Gasket(s) ***So informative and helpful!! Thank you Eric, salute!!

[@SJAndrewbsme]

Great trick. The trick I always use is seafoam. I pour it into the brake booster hose while the engine is running to burn off the carbon in the heads and top end. Very opaque smoke will pour out of the exhaust and any leaks. This is how I found a broken flex joint in my grand prix.

[@MrJohnsonx3]

I thought for sure you were going to do the dollar bill trick to find the leak. Where you hold a dollar just over the pipe and move it around until you see it flapping. For me it works better than feeling with my hand. Thanks for your time! Rad videos Eric!

[@JWSmythe]

I've never heard of anyone using the rag method, but it sounds like a great idea. The shop vac suggestion someone else made in the comments sounds great too.

It was literally as simple as starting my car from cold, taking off my glove, and feeling for leaks. I found a gash in my exhaust within minutes. You are the man, Eric the Car Guy!!!

[@mariavasquez5749]

My husband's car was making a funny noise but no lights on the dash were on and it was driving just fine. I sent a video of it to my brother who said it could possibly be an exhaust leak. So I looked up exhaust leak and stumbled upon your video and so glad I did. I probably would have paid an arm and leg and paid for stuff that didn't need to be repaired. He had 2 fasteners that were barely on. We tightened them up and the noise stop. Thanks so much again for this video!!

[@aaliahfuller1609]

This what’s happen to me now

[@ashleymarshall5502]

Very informative thank you, A question which came up for me was how dangerous can blocking the exhaust be for the car and how long have I got with the rag?

[@Bromadillojo]

Eric,even when i don't have problems with my vehicles. i enjoy watching your videos because it further expands my knowledge in the automotive field. thank you so much! keep the videos coming!

[@Spac8]

If you have tried the rag in exhaust trick and still can't find it, give your engine a dose if seafoam thru the intake/vacuum line. Doesn't matter if seafoam does anything, but the resulting smokescreen makes leaks SO easy to find.

[@Spac8]

obviously while using the rag!

[@XTRABIG]

Thanks!

[@thersten]

The mechanic was nice enough to lift my car up & show me the leak when it didn't pass emissions inspection here. I don't know if people have required emissions inspections elsewhere. He also used a shop rag but it wasn't really necessary; it was a big leak. Definitely going back to this shop if I ever need something done.

[@Watchgoodvideos1]

Excellent video thanks a lot. Changed the head gasket on my 1980 Triumph Spitfire. Got everything back together to find the exhaust was leaking. Couldn’t find any obvious leaks in the pipe, gave this video a watch, hopefully can sort it out with an easy fix like this!

[@petrmiskerik]

I finding exhaust leaks right now. Thanks Eric for this video, you are doing great job for all of us.

[@TravisTerrell]

2:00 Glad to see the jack stands. Floor jacks are usually reliable, but it always makes me nervous when people crawl underneath without them. (I've known people who've done it all their life, but I know what would happen the second I tried it!)

[@ayoutubecommenter1827]

My bestfriend was crushed to death for relying on ONLY a jack, without stands....

[@dirkmanning8621]

Always have back up for car jacks and Jack stands. I prefer car ramps even for major jobs if I can.... I have seen cars that body flex for some very small reason and the jack slips away. Unless you know the car very well and the angle of the surface you know very well always use Jack stands. Use jacks and stands together... Never use either alone.

[@elwynll]

thanks for the video eric ! just wondering when covering the tip with a rag, if for some reason there isnt a leak, is that bad for the engine/car as the exhaust gases will have no where to go?? how long is it able to be done safely? thanks !

[@lizard944]

I put Seafoam in the engine. When it starts smoking, then do the rag trick and smoke will be pouring out of any leaks.

[@jglaboratory]

Best idea to date.ty

[@georgedoughly6344]

[@HHIVR4]

[@Sroor90010]

😂😂😂 Nice even you can spray some water itll do same thing

[@coopersilberling6883]

Time to seafoam my car the second time in a week

[@Roushfan5]

Depending on where the exhaust leak is it can allow exhaust to leak into places you don't' want it it. Namely the cab of the vehicle, and that can cause all kinds of problems. Also your car may not pass local emission regs, and a lot of people like their car to be as quiet as possible. Also exhausts are actually a pretty key part of your overall engine performance. A bad exhaust system can cause subpar performance if allowed to un checked. Perhaps even cause engine damage.

[@roberthorwat6747]

Greetings from the UK. I was being razzed by a flange visibly intact apart from the bit I could not see and but for your tip I don't know how long it would have taken to pinpoint. Once I could hear the changing tone the location was nailed. Lo and behold once off there she was! Cannot thank you enough!.

[@richardhill2379]

Like the flange that Eric found, I read on here a few comments down that it's better to try tightening a bolt when it's warm or you can snap them off. Can you use a spray lubricant on them before you try to see if its loose or not...I dont want to snap the bolts off.

[@juniorflores8284]

HEY ERIC DAM I KNOWN YOU FOR YEARS NOT PERSONAL BUT IVE LEARNED ALOT FROM YOU OVER THE YEARS THANKS AGAIN FOR THE HELP BROTHER GODBLESS HOPE ALL IS WELL...

[@Dubiels]

Great tip Eric. I was dreading looking for my exhaust leak until I came across your video. Thanks!

[@sanity599]

I worked at a Midas Mufler and I kept a length of fuel line on my tool cart just for this problem. I would hold one end of the line to my ear and moved the other end around where I thought there would be a leak. You can hear it very well like that. Also if you have a torch handy you can pop a small hole into the pipe and put the torch tip in the hole. You will be able to see the leak as flame will come out there.

[@HiFiInsider]

good tip. how long can the muffler be covered up? I was thinking of buying a smoke machine to find the leak on my 95 Civic.

[@mightyORFEN]

Is it normal for exhaust/ water to be coming out near the flange on the muffler near the intake side? You said its normal on the weep holes but isnt the weep hole near the bottom and not the connector?

[@briggs9187]

The best way I have seen to find an exhaust leak and was quite amazing, you put a smoke machine on the exhaust tip pumping smoke backwards towards the engine and you will see the smoke leaking out of the what ever gasket or hole there are... it is here on youtube and it was so cool to see.

[@JDFMusicandmore]

Thats great that u saw the improvement u were looking for. My only concern is, and this may be a shot in the dark, depending on how old ur vehicle is, running the best types of fuel in an old vehicle may not be the best way for it. Some of the better fuels are so rich and can leak in certain areas of either the fuel system, or the engine in general. Same goes for oil I think? That is why u need to know exactly what ur putting in it. Like I said, shot in dark, please dnt hate on my comment.

[@thersten]

I replaced the whole exhaust too. I used some black stuff. It was labeled "gasket sealant" & you have to wait a couple of minutes until it feels tacky before you make your connection. The sealant has to say it's ok for exhaust or it won't stand up to the high temperatures. Also be sure you have a gasket in between. If the install instructions don't call for one, I would still buy a gasket that fits in between the connections. Good luck.

[@richardhill2379]

I think that's a good idea with the shop rag in the muffler, I'm gonna try it, also with the rag can you use the soap water spray with it, what kind of soapy water spray is it and can you use just R-T-U spray cleaner you normally buy at the store like glass cleaner or degreaser cleaner.

[@tonytellitright9713]

VIDEOS LIKE THIS AND OLD SKOOL FUNK IS WHY I AM A DO IT YOURSELF KINDA GFUY . AND THE FEELING OF ACCOMPLISHMENT IS UNDESCRIBABLE!

[@hootinouts]

Eric, I love your videos. I just pinpointed two cracks in the exhaust manifold of my 2005 Nisson Altima. I took my shop vac with the hose connected to the blowing side of the machine and then connected the free end to the tail pipe. To my surprise the hose fit over the tail pipe so good that no further sealing (e.g. duct tape) was necessary. With the engine off I turned on the shop vac. I then used my mechanics stethoscope with the probe end removed to hunt for the leak. I had a suspicion it was near the catalytic converter and sure enough it was. There were two separate cracks; each running parallel to a weld.

[@CosminRotaru]

What if you plug that hole but there's no leak? Will the engine stop? Any danger of messing up some things on the engine? Thanks!

[@Sroor90010]

Too late answer didnt see that video but the answer is For sure itll stop

[@lancelafonde5240]

How long should you keep the rag plugging the exhaust while you check for the leak? Is it harmful to the motor doing this?

[@EzBible]

Just watched 1 of your videos on repairing an exhaust leak. What is with the flanges these days? Seems to be a point that needs repair on older cars. Anyway a tip 4U. I found in tight places like the top of exhaust pipes the good old cordless rotary like Dremal tools work great. especially the cordless. For about 20 minutes or so. The thicker grinding discs will cut pert near anything. The thin discs that come with the set are useless. You can but 1/32 and 1/16 thick that work great. Wire brushes work fine but have a short life. Unless some knows a set that last. As for welding the top of the pipe. There is a JBL exhaust epoxy that does harden like a rock and does last a while. Like about a year. On small leaks it should be great. Costs about $8 and once mixed will harden in the tube.

About the same way I've done it before. Some of the trickier ones become very obvious with the addition of a few drips of ATF into the intake, too.

[@johnvandyk2592]

Eric, the rag in the pipe nailed it for me. Now for the fix. What is your take on using the "split flange" for rotted out exhaust pipe flanges? I see you fixed one with a welder, but I don't weld. What say you?

[@TheChevytruckguy]

ive also had experienced techs tell me to pour a small amount of atf into the intake or through a vacuum line then watch the exahaust system to see where the smoke comes out of but your method also works quite well

[@sheldonm3535]

I fixed the exhaust leak on my 2010 Camry LE 2.5L i4. It was leaking from the flex pipe. I ordered a new piece and had the muffler shop weld it in. So much quieter now. I think mpg and performance went up also. But not sure. I didn't want to wait to long and lead to more issues. Darn salt they use on the roads has cause many issues on this car. It's also worn out a lot of the pulleys which I replaced as well. The salt cause the covers to rust out exposing the grease. I replaced both belts as well. As chunks were missing. Def original from 09-10 188k Wow that's a clean install you did! That's the right way to do it replace it all. This way the old part of the exhaust doesn't go bad as the other parts are new. But the rest of my exhaust seems to be ok so I didn't replace it all. Plus it was very expensive.

[@Shameless519]

Are those exhaust wraps/patches an effectivee measure to pass Inspection?

[@illmavic247]

[@davelowe1977]

Yes - or even dripping out of the tail pipe. The water (a by-product of combustion) condenses inside the cooler parts of the exhaust and the cooler parts tend to be furthest from the engine.

[@jefffisher4449]

Eric you've helped me in the past, a question, will a leak in the flex pipe cause a rough driving idle?

[@TruthSeekers1989]

Hey Eric thankyou for the videos, im just curious can this extra pressure buildup from covering exhaust cause issues or is it safe?

[@robert33112]

I just recently bought a used 2008 Toyota Sienna van. I just had the thing in the Toyota dealership the day before getting an out state inspection done, plus brakes, alignment and windshield replacement. Unfortunately I am smelling exhaust fumes inside the cab from time to time. Any suggestions ?

[@budokaiboy]

Hi Eric. Your other video on using CLR and back-flushing the lines for the heater core also helped me out. I'm going to try this rag trick out. I recently (6 months ago)replaced from the exhaust manifold to the cat and used replaced the associated gaskets. Now it's gotten loud but it seems to be coming from under the heat shield for the exhaust manifold. I'm hoping it's just the same screws that you tightened in this video and not a cracked manifold. Thanks!

[@robertprivera]

I can smell fumes inside the passenger cabin, unless I turn the fresh air fan on. I found an exhaust leak just before the muffler where a clamp joins the muffler section of pipe to the pipe that goes to the catalytic converter. Even though it's so far back (2006 Dodge Grand Caravan 3.8L), would those fumes still make it into the cabin or does the leak have to be up in the engine compartment?

[@zallow3464]

Thanks Eric, today i learned about the rag trick and muffler weep-holes. ;) Always learn something new with your videos. Keep em coming.

[@Xeblae]

Just curious would it be a little safer and easier to just blow a fog machine back up the exhaust with the car not running? If the machine had enough pressure to push it that far.

[@anarchyamp]

Eric, Instead of running the car while checking for leaks, keep it off (and cool) and just shove a shop vac hose into or around the exhaust tip and tape the eff out of it to seal the hose to the exhaust tip, then set the shop vac to blow (rather than suck) and turn it on, and check under car for air leaking out/hissing. The benefits of this are you don't have to breathe in carbon monoxide while checking for leaks!

[@yungjavfromaz]

I was driving my Mazda a few days ago and I was stopped at a light and then when the light turned green my car was super loud like it had a straight pipe and it wasn't moving off the start like it usually does. Once I got to a certain rpm then it started to have more power. Was weird and everyone told me I probably have a failed gasket or leak somewhere.I haven't looked at it yet cuz I have a lot of cars but do you think a failed gasket or exhaust leak would make my car get super loud like it had a straight pipe? I was under there looking at the piping a few weeks before and I noticed that several of the welds on the car are really crappy like a beginner welded it together

[@ultimumlibertas5727]

So 2016 dodge dart just recently got pretty stuck in the mud and I'd figured that the mud would get into some undesired places under there so I took it for a test drive afterwards through some back roads to see if I could spot any new problems that might have occurred.1st. I noticed that accelerating over 70 mph the steering wheel would begin to shake or vibrate and had a little bit of play. Which of course might indicate that there is quite a bit of mud that built up in and around the dampening rods, CV joints, driveline, tierod ends, on the outside of the wheel bearings and pretty anything having to do with the suspension of course. 2nd. When accelerating my car seems to have slight trouble shifting gears on its own but it still manages to do so. I heard the term slipping transmission before although I'm skeptical that that may be the case however I do know that there can be various factors that can cause a "slipping transmission". 3rd. Upon starting the engine the car seems to put out a good little burst of exhaust. Now this compact sedan is pretty hot and does have some sexy whine to it when starting and pushing the horses but before getting stuck it never had that "burst" upon starting. I should also mention that when I was in the process of getting my car unstuck I heard and felt a noticeable type of clunk occur down there. Like heavy metal breaking or gears slipping in rotation because a foreign object was putting the gears in a bind. I'm no expert but I would much appreciate some good mechanical advice. I know mud can really mess things up down there especially as stuck as I was. I actually couldn't even see underneath my car because it was so compacted with mud. But car is still drive able. I know that if I ruptured a boot or crack a dampening rod or blew the transmission of course then it would not be drive able. As for the exhaust I'm thinking mud and excess water may have gotten in through the weeping hole down there. Like I said if any of you have an opinion I'm open to advice and enlightenment.

Eric your video was very good and helpful. Now on my 02 Hyundai Sonata for the noise when I accelerate gets louder & start up-it sounds like an exhaust to me-as it is only up front I hear it.

I wish you were my mechanic:)

Can an exhaust leak cause an o2 sensor low voltage (p0131 code)

Are there any codes associated with an exhaust leak ? My ranger keeps having a 420 code bank 1 below efficiency, and both upper and downstream 02 sensors are stable. I was told it would be a cat prob.

[@fordman7479]

Can an exhaust leak at the manifold make a car run bad, i got a 94 ranger with the 4.0 and it's running rough and missing after warm up like a sensor is bad, but the only codes it's throwing is 172 177 lean on one side and rich on the other. I'm pretty sure the manifold gasket is shot and the would be a leak before the o2 sensors. But from all the google research I've done people say it won't make it run bad

[@nolanfeller]

Eric, I know it's hard to diagnose something you can't hear or see, but I feel like I may have leaky headers on my 5.9 Magnum truck. it's hard to pinpoint the noise or feel for air when the fan is spinning and belts are going and vacuum lines etc, but do headers sound different from the cab as opposed to the stock manifolds? like maybe more of an airy sound? sounds like ticking or a pattering sound but someone said that it's the exhaust scavenging through the thinner tubular headers and my gaskets are probably fine.

[@Siskiyouoffroad]

+swollennolan; If you're talking about aftermarket headers then yeah, that's probably normal.

[@johnaranjo6354]

This is what has to be going on with my maxima 3.5 the front manifold gasket to the catalytic convert gasket is gone but its hars to pin point becuase the heat shield redirects the leak maybe oll try tightening the fasteners down like you did

[@morthren]

How did you deal with the snapped bolt from the manifold cover?

[@ChinnuWoW]

+morthren You can drill a hole in it and extract it.

[@alldayandnight09]

that's only if its before the 02 sensor. it may give a false code for the second 02 sensor indicating a bad catalyst. you right but only if it is before the 02. i doubt it will be able to draw air back up in the exhaust pipe to trigger that.

[@carmenlawson125]

came across JW industries donut fix for bolt issues - looked pretty nifty, have you tried them?

[@SiteReader]

Eric, should blocking off the exhaust cause the engine to stall? I replaced the muffler on my 02 Accord, and it's quieter but still seems a little loud. Midas replaced the down pipe about 6 months ago. Does the fact that it doesn't stall when blocked tell me there is still a leak somewhere?

[@commandercody38]

Larry Hecht if you watched the video he explained there are special holes were water is meant to drain out of only now gas is escaping there and he doesn't just plug it he just holds the rag against it enough so the pressure goes to the leaks.

[@sand0077]

Sounds like a good technique. An exhaust on a Mazda Rx-7 gets extremely hot, so the rag, or one's hand being close to the system, may not last too long.

[@kdmq]

In winter just start it cold and look for steam puffing out.

[@MikeRoePhonicsMusic]

Thanks for the "rag-on-the-muffler" trick! My 1998 Civic just started getting really loud. I'm almost certain it's the pipe leading to the muffler. I had that pipe rust out 3-ish years ago, and I think the new pipe has rusted out.

[@brock12892]

could you also use a sprayer with soapy water like you would to find a gas leak with plumbing?

[@TheStephenspann27]

It will evaporate right away if it's near the motor where the exhaust is really not. You might be able to use that method near the rear of the vehicle where it isn't as hot. or maybe with the engine cold.

[@christopherfox8950]

how long can you leave that rag in? Is it enough time to stuff the rag in and then go find it? Nothing will blow?

[@anasamla]

i had the same issue on my 91 accord, went through a puddle and it sounded like my exhaust fell, i found that the downpipes nuts had loosened to far and the gasket actually fell out. replaced and now it sounds better

[@rziem420]

ETCG1, and viewers. I would like to add that in addition to stuffing the rag in the end of the pipe, another way to utilize the rag is like ribbons on an air conditioning vent. Just take the rag and drape over the pipe. Then just pull the rag down the pipe and watch for it to flap. This trick is helpful when the pipe is hot and you cant get your hand around it. It also help to find a leak in cramped places you cannot fit your hand in to.

Thank you for this video, Saw that my muffler was "Weeping" thought it might have been a more serious issue. You gave me the info I needed to hear!

are those walker replacement pipes? if so are they good?

eric, I have a Honda fit, 2009. I have a burning smell that smells like rubber or sometimes exhaust. my Honda dealer said loose spark plugs and coils were burnt. I replaced all them to no avail. any ideas? this car has 150K on it and mostly original parts.
