Holes in muffler causing vibration?
Hey guys, i just found a hole in my muffler today. Now when i put the car in reverse or drive my car shakes, i also have a strong odor inside the truck. I left the car in park and looked under my car to see the muffler vibrating. I just put in an order for a Flowmaster 60 series that won't be here till wednesday. Does anyone have experience with this and also how can i patch the problem till Wednesday? maybe some duct tape? thanks

so maybe one or more of the spark plugs or wires or cap/rotor are defective. try swapping them for some other ones..then a different brand (best if you have a friend with the same motor. Are you sure you put the wires back on their respective plugs?
oh haha..also, I know from experience....don't use duct tape on the exhaust .
What does the odor smell like ?
