Post fairly small hole in muffler
My pd stock muffler has a very small hole on the underside of the middle part of the muffler. I was wondering how much this might affect performance and if JB weld coulf be put on it to fill the hole. Thanks ghys

wont effect much but that hole will eventually get bigger. not sure of the jb weld temp ranges but i wouldnt trust it and even if it did hold, the hole would still grow to where the jb weld would fall off. best to grind it out a little and tack weld or patch weld it.

JB Weld wont work. Braze it with a coat hanger.
