Default Re: silicone pipe

ine thingg to be sure ou do is clean the pipe, & manifold inside and out with some motor spray, dont forget the coupler also. I usually double tie wrap my pipes, then cover it with that thermatape (dynamite stuff). When you reassemble the pipe, be sure to try and center the whole thing in the coupler. that should do it.

another thing you might try is to flare out the pipe and manifold, use a screw driver or pliers to flare it out.

Good luck
