  • Oil down muffler

    Ok, so just to be on the safe side, I did attempt a search for this and didn't come up with much. Turns out someone decided a fun prank would be to shoot about half a turkey baster of oil down my muffler. I panicked thinking something was wrong with the motor until someone stepped up and explained that it was a late April fools prank. It smokes pretty bad and I was wondering if there was anyone that knew of a way to get that oil out. I figure at some point it would burn out on its own but that seems like a lot of oil.

    Burn it off. Meaning go for a ride.

      Connect a length of tubing to a 20 or 60 mL syringe?

          Worst case scenario you will have to replace the packing....but just go ride, and ride hard. The hotter the exhaust the quicker it burns out.

            Stock exhaust=no packing to worry about(at least on a pre, not sure on a post). Just pretend your 007 and have a smoke screen.

              Someone admitted to putting oil into your muffler as a prank?

              Are they still alive?

                I would require a new exhaust as an apology (if the packing was damaged), if they didnt id put sand in their gas tank... as a prank.

                      Lets just say if it doesn't burn out after about a hundred miles or so I'll be getting a shinny new one for free.
