Default Hair In My Muffler!??!?!

Wow, i just rolled my car up on ramps because my exhaust has gone to **** (still stock). There was a rust hole in the muffler so i decided to take the rusted metal off. After i take the metal off a **** load of black hair is just popping out of the hole. Im like wtf!!! is this. FOr a second i thought it was a dead animal but thats impossible?? is it?

Probably a dead, baby ratt that crawled into your intake and almost made it through the whole motor. You need to pull him out. The hair is toxic.

it's what "MUFFLES" the sound in your MUFFLER. Mufflers are filled with different materials to allow sound waves to penetrate them to prevent them from exiting with the exhaust gases... they also absorb some carbon and other deposits...

if you've ever heard the term "glasspack" refering to a muffler it's a muffler that is filled with fiberglass strands that look much like thick hair.

wait no... it's probobly the dead rat.

yeah. check you intake piping for holes, even as small as 1/4 inch. baby rats can fit through some small *** holes.

That is one hairy muff, how old was she when she started losing hair? j/k
Seriously, I put money on muffler packing. Seriously, did the mouse come in through the intake and chew through the screens in your converter?

99% chance it's the fiberglass packing that has absorbed carbon and turned black.
