Has anyone had trouble with the front donut gasket. I get mine lined up bou when I start it and rev it up it turns it to the side. Has new springs and gasket. Any way to solve this problem by maybe using a clamp to hold it in place. Thank you. Gods blessings to all.

Probably bell end of the exhaust is worn causing it **** up. If you can possibly find stronger springs this would help. Some people have even used safety wire and the tool and tightened the devil out of it to stop this. If nothing else then a clamp might help stop it from doing this.Better than buying a new exhaust pipe. Possible you could rig some sort of bracket to the frame to support the exhaust also. You can also adjust the bottom of the pipe support.Loosen the lock nut and raise or lower the support block bolt and see if that helps. Items 18 and 20.
