Troubleshooting
Sleeve is difficult to install
Ensure pipe ends are clean and free of burrs. Apply a small amount of silicone spray or soapy water to the inside of the sleeve or the outside of the pipe for lubrication. Warm the sleeve slightly in the sun or with a hairdryer (low heat) to increase flexibility.
Exhaust leak detected after installation
Re-check that the sleeve is fully seated on both exhaust pipes. Ensure the pipes are properly aligned and not putting excessive stress on the sleeve. Inspect the sleeve for any tears or damage that may have occurred during installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure both exhaust pipe ends are clean and free of debris before installation.

Some gentle twisting or lubrication (like a silicone spray) might assist in fitting.
