Morning chaps.
Question.......
Does the baffle packing stuff serve any other function other than making the pipes quieter

Im just asking as i think my microns need repacking but if its just going to make them quieter then i dont think il bother

If YA can't ride it Park it!!

I own a 2 stroke which is bad .....but i buy dolphin friendly tuna so i feel im doin my bit for the environment
If your not livin on the edge ur takin up too much room!

Repacking .. (standard house type insulation works as well as bespoke and overpriced variants)
Does seem to run a wee bit better than with old oil soaked packings.
I do it at least at the begining of each season, sometimes midway through as well.
Gooey ugly mess to pull out deal with though.
