ABSTRACT:
An improved exhaust system for water craft engines is disclosed, which consists in the main an exhaust manifold connected to the cylinder exhaust port of the engine, an exhaust pipe joined at one end to the exhaust manifold and a diffuser connected at one end to the other end of the exhaust pipe and at the other end to the rest of the exhaust system including a muffler and steam separator. The exhaust pipe is divided into two axial parts, the first vertical, largely U-shaped pipe portion for direct connection to the exhaust pipe at downstream thereof and the second horizontal pipe portion for connection at one end thereof to the first pipe portion at downstream thereof and at the opposite end to the diffuser. The second pipe portion is disposed to extend adjacent to the exhaust manifold and made integral therewith in a rigid assembly, with the first pipe portion being releasably secured to the exhasut manifold and second portion through bolts for easy disassembly in servicing. Thus, since the exhaust pipe is integrally attached to the exhaust manifold through its divided first pipe portion, the entire exhaust system is held in relatively firmly fixed position in the engine compartment of rather limited space, so that operations to secure the various devices of the exhaust system there are greatly eased.
