Another exhaust question I'm afraid:

When fitting a new exhaust with brand new sealing rings and sleeve clamps should you use any extra sealant or is a dry fit sufficent?

thanks

I don't know about anyone else here but whenever I've fitted new exhausts with sealing rings and collars, I use some assembly paste to help seal it up and keep it all together.
