Insulation to cover my xchamber

[James912]

I've read where some on this forum use different things to cover their xchamber. Any ideas that will cover it to keep your leg from getting singed every so often.

the easiest way to go is header wrap.

Thx. I have sbp xchamber, and the silver cover that covers the bottom of the xchamber, i've noticed gas been leaking out of the top of it. Cuz I noticed around that part of the pipe was wet, and i sniffed, and sure enough, Its gas. It may be doing it on the bottom too. Is that supposed to happen? I don't think its supposed to. Its held onto the chamber by rivets. It was loose when i got it and still loose.

Yeah there is nothing there to seal it , if your running rich enough , sure you will see gas.
Later when the fiberglass loads up with oil (if your running any of the richer oil/ gas mixes) it will push some oil out there.
Just cleaned mine but I think at 100:1 with opti 2 , oil saturation of the fiberglass wont be a problem .
