Blowing exhaust

[theironduke]

Inititially i thought it was manifold gaskets but they are sound....on closer listening it sounds like its coming from below the main cat, i'm guessing theres a join down there?

If its a gasget type join, rather than clamped, where can i get the gasket? The fizzy/tinkling sound is annoying me now!

Plan to get the exhaust off soon to have a play (needing more loudness ) so will get this sorted then.

Thanks as usual guys.

I've had a similar problem recently with a ticking manifold type noise. Turned out one of the spark plugs had come loose and it was coming from there, despite it sounding as though it was coming from the lower front of the engine bay. Worth a look?
