Very clever, this is the idea I had in mind. Great to see you put in to action & it working! I'll be trying this method tomorrow morning while the pipes are cool from not running the engine. Thank You!
*To be honest, this was a fantastic job. That will last at least for a year or 2. Who cares? It's an old truck. I would've used a grinder with a wire wheel to quickly clean the surface though. Just so the tape adhesive has a better chance of sticking. But still, awesome job!!*
It actually failed about 2 weeks after the video. Both beer cans burned thru as well as the tape. I had to cut the 90 degree part of pipe out and weld in a new elbow. It's good now.
Haha I done this on a honda prelude about 15 years ago! I put high temp gasket makers on the beer cans then wrapped it with exhaust tape, the car has passed hands about 15 times since then but im pretty sure its still holding up! 😂
People have been doing this forever,but without the tape. There was even an old magazine in the 70’s saying just to use an aluminum can and radiator hose clamps. That tiger patch stuff is just messy and doesn’t last long
did this in my teen years cuZ I could not afford repairing it. used a coffee can and hose clamps. when a friend offered to repair it, he nearly pissed his pants when he saw it.
Bought a moped and the exhaust is absolutely blew out, welder said no shot of fixing it, used QuikSteel & strapped it, lasted 3 months. Dont want to quiksteel it again, cant order a new exhaust because it’s made in china & my card doesnt transfer currency. Hoping this will work until i get my brakes fixed on my car next check.
I'd love to use that but parts for my car are expensive just 1 shock costs 300 and they have to be sent to be made plus got sensors that get fucked cause I straight pipe it and exhaust got fucked now few sensors get damaged mostly air intake sensor

@@QuickSpeedShop really because I did a similar repair with a beer can too and it's been over 2 years and it's been good and that was a completely separated pipe. I know I could of probably put a coupling but I had muffler patch products on the shelf I knew I was never going to use and I just through em all on there but been the pipe and the beer can I used muffler cement that's y mine lasted. Lol it was sopost to be a temporary fix that wasn't sopost to even last more than a week or so and ended up forgetting about it till I so your video and now I'm not playing to fix it till it breaks. Lol
good video buddy but...but you said the best beer in the world is Genessee...well i`m sorry to tell you American beer tastes like moose piss you should sample Molson Canadian....anyways good video...good camera....and good volume...a very good diy no $$$ video....thumbs up and keep the S10 chevy rollin down the road......
@@QuickSpeedShop I think it was a great job you did because I did it too very similar with a beer can and it was sopost to be a temporary thing till I got around it to fix it properly and it's been on there for over 2 years and it's a daily driver. Maybe it's not the right way to fix it but it's a definitely a durable patch job that It surprisingly holds up for a long time.
I tried this.. suppose to be temporary. it's been 2years and still good. I even forgot about it. Lol
That's awesome... wish me luck. Hopefully Pepsi cans work just as well as the cold ones 😅
i just did this on my civic, where header connects to cat was split clean off, used 2 cans and its sooo much quieter now. genius idea
Hi dude, Bush's bean cans and 2 radiator clamps last forever.... Costs bout $2.00 at the Dollar Gentral ☺
Very clever, this is the idea I had in mind. Great to see you put in to action & it working! I'll be trying this method tomorrow morning while the pipes are cool from not running the engine. Thank You!
The patch and can lasted a couple of months then blew out. I ended up welding in a new piece of pipe later.

Saw your video, went to Auto Parts got two of the patches and fixed the Muffler Pipe problem this afternoon. Thanks' so much
After a few months a follow up video would be awesome. I like quick little repairs like that. Thank you for sharing with us

@@QuickSpeedShop So it lasted more than a week?? I got a muffler problem and need it to last at least 7 more days.
@@QuickSpeedShop It seems the Fiber-fix tape lasts longer than its goopy competitors. Thanks for being so honest about this.

Stupid me - how did I forget about soda can??? I paid 11 bucks at Autozone for an aluminum wrap kit with 2 clamps. Damn it!
😅
I just did this ! And i looked it up to see if any one did this. good job.
It looks good to me. I’ve seen the same job done many times ......... and with worse results too. Don’t get beating yourself up. Have a good new year.
hahahahaha...."Here, hold my exhaust pipe"....wait, that didn't sound like I meant it....hahahahaha
Lol I just did this and it worked and looked it up to see anyone else has tried it.
At least it is not bud light
Lmaoo😂
Thank You Brother, from GA!!!
👍
Happy New Year from Ardare Acres Ontario.

This lasted about a month before it blew out. Just needed a temp repair to get by.
How'd that end up working out for ya.
Use a old piece of license plate it works great 👍
I like your idea, I will use a red Bull can thank for the video
It only lasts a couple of weeks fyi.
Next time try soup can and radiator clamps it should last longer than 2 weeks
ok this was awesome. how did it hold up?
Lasted about a month, but got me by until I could weld in a new pipe.
Was going to do this, but too late pipe came off while driving and bent to sh__ . Gonna order whole shebang from Ebay $210 stainless steel from china
👍 good job got to do what you have to do
did this in my teen years cuZ I could not afford repairing it. used a coffee can and hose clamps. when a friend offered to repair it, he nearly pissed his pants when he saw it.
Good idea!!
I did the same thing in 1970. Beer can with two hose clamps then wrapped it with tiger tape😊
I just had to cut my tailpipe, what's left of it, not much lol. I put a down tip on it until my new parts come 😁🤜🤛

Go high-end, use a Starbucks can, bling it on!
I wouldn't be caught dead in a Starbucks.
@@QuickSpeedShopMe neither. That's where women go. LoL!! JK.
I hit the like button because I felt bad
Why?
That car is probably long gone, but shoot drain oil all over the underbody to stop further rust. It really helps.
Long gone. I use Fluid Film now
@@QuickSpeedShop
Good move.
Transmission fluid conventional prevents rust I sprayed my hole undercarriage of my car😊 works for me
I'd love to use that but parts for my car are expensive just 1 shock costs 300 and they have to be sent to be made plus got sensors that get fucked cause I straight pipe it and exhaust got fucked now few sensors get damaged mostly air intake sensor
"I straight pipe it and exhaust got fucked"?? That sounds painful.
Well done
Thank you for honesty!` One makes a lots of effort to earn money and someone grabs it quickly by telling a lie. That is China and insurance companies.
And anyone selling a used car.
good job!

Should have used Genesee Cream ale

Nope, Genny Lt forever, unlike the S10, which was turned back into beer cans a couple of years ago at the big recycler in the sky.
I'm Canadian as well. I USED to be a Molson Canadian man. It DOES taste good. But I also loved Labatt Blue.
I never tried Genesse.
Your statement suggests that you know what moose piss tastes like, I guess what happens in Canada stays in Canada. I'll stick with my Coors light...
why use the beer can just use the tape
Wanted to reinforce it.
probably better off without the beer can on the inside
Interesting...
What was the first word the German immigrant, in 1920, learned to blend in with his friends at a Buffalo bar? "Genesee!"
not long last enough..,bro
Got me thru until I could weld in a new pipe.
He said it was a temp fix dumbass
Gonna smoke like crazy that tape isn't safe on hot exhaust
Its specifically made for exhaust.
Don't breed!!
Genny cream > genny light
Genny Light all the way!
How much for a 12 pack?
@@superorangeish i believe 9.99 at my local beer shop . 30 racks are usually 15-17?
8 mm socket and a screw gun is your best friend in these cases, nice work otherwise.
This is the way not to do it
