Would small exhaust leak cause this?
Hello, I posted about a bit back about issue with 89XT sputtering and quitting when hot only. I found a connection in the exhaust (near the engine) that is leaking a fair amount of air. Could that cause the stalling/sputtering/backfiring when it got fully warmed up, but run fine when you first start it and for the first 10-15 minutes? I'm a newb when it comes to exhausts, is there seals you can replace on the connection that's kind of near the air intake/crankcase area?
Thanks for your help.
