I'm replacing my coupler and I noticed on my one end tank that I fudged it up. I overtightened it and messed up the lip. What should i do. Take a small light weight hammer and try to put it back to normal? Take a look at the pictures and let me know what you guys think. Thanks

 

ya your fine wack that thing back with a hammer and move the clamp a little further down thats all

 

heat it up a bit and carefully tap it back in place.

 

For the other side my end tank isn't completey round inside, from where the clamp was too tight. Whats the best way to round thme back out?

 

What Tommi said...

 

stick something hard and cone shaped inside. It's the easiest way to get it back to round.

 

^^^^^This

 

This sounds like a plan

 

you could always use one of these tools.

they sell them at summit racing and most auto stores for straightening kinked exhaust, so if it works on steel it should do good with aluminum.

 

Something as simple as a 2" piece of pipe or smaller and a dead blow hammer would even do the trick, just take it easy. Its better to slowly achieve the from that to oval the entire piping inlet.
