EXHAUST - SPLIT COLLARS/COLLETS

(1/4) > >>

Nurse Julie:
Hi Chaps.
What way do your split exhaust collars go in ?. I'm sure that when I took mine out the phlange end was down inside the head but in the Haynes manual they show the phlange out by the frilly retaining rings. I have looked on internet and article on DSS says 'make sure you note which way round the collars are so you can replace them the same way' which leads me to believe they can go either way. I'm confused............please help  :'( :'( :'(
Ta in advance
Julie

The flange goes against the frilly thing. It has a recess for it. Would they fit the other way round? The non-flange end bears down on the downpipe flange which in turn presses against the gasket.

Nurse Julie:
Thanks Tom, that all makes sense. I have a feeling that was the way they were before I took the pipes off. I think what has thrown me is the article I read on DSS site which made me think 'what way were mine in' !!!!

Thanks for your help
Regards
Julie
