smoke coming out between 2 exhaust parts

[qhL]

Hi guys,

I got a question related to the exhaust..
When i fire up my seadoo xp 657x there is smoke coming out between the 2 exhaust pipes where they are held together by the exhaust pipe clamp..

now i was wonder is this the only thing that connects these 2 parts together ? or should there be any gasket between these parts?

I thank you guys in advance,

Leroy

There is a gasket in between the pipe halves. It may have gone bad.

I'm not sure what you are asking. (I think I'm missing something)

Take off the clamp (#34)... Unbolt and pipe supports (#41)... replace the gasket(#43)... put the clamp back on. #44 is used with the gasket.

Put some high temp silicone gasket sealant on the gasket....just make sure its clean and oil free..
