Heat wrap emergency!

Post by kris_aka_edu » Mon Jun 10, 2013 4:34 pm

I've just heat wrapped my manifold and exhaust. And now there's loads of smoke coming from it it looks like its on fire. Is this dangerous or normally happen to people when they put it on first time?

Thank god! Just had a panic attack thought that the 3 hours I spent taking it off wrapping it and putting it back on again was wasted! It's white wrap and has now turned a lovely creamy brown and stopped! Haha thank god! Cheers guys
