🔌 Function

Turns the exhaust away from the manifold and carries the gas, usually water-cooled or water-injected, into the exhaust system.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Rusty water dripping or exhaust fumes escaping at the joint
• Soot streaking on the outside of the elbow
• Internal bore choked with carbon and scale, raising back pressure
• Corrosion through the water jacket, letting water into the exhaust gas path
• Loss of power and black smoke from restricted flow

🛠️ Service Notes

• Renew the gaskets and all corroded studs and nuts; exhaust fixings very rarely come apart twice
• Look through the bore for carbon build-up before refitting, and check the mating flange face is flat
• A blocked or corroded elbow can push exhaust gas or water back into the engine bay, so cure the leak rather than patching it
