Exhaust Leak.
Hey guys,
This might sound strange, but I cannot find my exhaust leak, It's been eluding me. I know it's there and I only really hear it when I pass by another car, or a high curb. I've hd the car jacked up and looked for rott or ay hole in exhaust, and I've checked the engine compartment... with the use of a (Marksman Ultrasonic Diagnostic Tool.) Hmmmm... Help?

BB or SB?!?!?!?! BB exhaust manifolds are known to crack. One way is to get car up in the air and have someone cover each tailpipe outlet with a handful of rags as you listen for the backpressure leak. Have you checked the tightness of the exhaust manifold bolts? Is it really the exhaust and not a U-joint possibly or rotor scraping. Exhaust should be like a ticking noise. Good luck

I've used this technique for locating noisy tappets as well. May sound strange but it has worked for me many times.
