K2 high temp sealant.
Cant stress enough - clean both surfaces until they shine like a sheeps arse. All previous sealant must be removed.
Apply a generous amount of K2 to the male slip part.
Once together run your finger round the joint to seal, fit spring, run finger round again. Leave overnight before starting.
If it leaks after that I suspect a fitment/manufacturing error.

Good to hear 👍 any high temp sealant is fine if I have found. Leaving it overnight is key I think 🤔 imagine the sealant all the way down in the slip joint, takes a while to completely cure and its not set hard by heating like exhaust paste. |

The directions say 24 hours so I did.
Let's se how long will it last.
Next step if it doesn't work is exhaust seal tape.
