repair

[Chris]

well thanks to mike I had the correct sockets to use. I'm still having a problem though, maybe someone can give some advice. Today I took out the 3 bolts again holding the 2 exhaust pipes together so I could hopefully get a better seal. 2 bolts went back in fine, but the third was stripped (seems to be my trademark). Went to advance and got a new bolt, got it in but it still won't tighten. Sealed all the way around the 2 joining pipes with RTV, just to see if it would help. I still hear a slight leak when I'm on the gas and between shifts. Should I just ignore it or try and tighten it again?
