Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Morgan Three Wheeler & Super 3 Melted front indicators

I noticed today both front indicators are melting with heat from the exhausts.

I'm going to have to wrap the headers sooner than I thought.

Ceramic exhaust
That s happen to jack from Toulouse

This happened to one of mine. Apparently the exhaust was misaligned and too close to the indicator.

Get your dealer to sort it out is my advice

I had the same problem. I have the black exhaust pipes, haven't heard anyone with the chrome pipes having that problem. with the cats being so close I thought that might be the reason for the high heat. took the cats out , hasn't been any worse but still have melted turn signal lights.

Mine exhausts are also black, but I haven't had a problem since the exhaust was correctly fitted

Part of the inner wall of the drivers footwell on mine look like that ,there is a small plastic bulge ( part of the design ) that comes close to the gearbox has melted similar. Very localized and not really a concern , other than its right next to the gearbox which I would have thought would be fairly cool ?

I've also discovered one of my turn signals melted. I was thinking about installing a heat shield like the one at the link below. Has anybody done something like this? Any thoughts about it?

I fitted Harley heat shields over the headers - they are slightly curved so run to a point just under the pipes. Mine are also holed which matches the main silencer heat shields. Just fitted additional Morgan Supersports logo heat shields to the front pipes as well.

Time Morgan supplied heat shields

I used exhaust wrap and had no more problems.

I did the same, double layer of exhaust wrap, no signs of heat on the indicators.
