Volvo 280 Exhaust Bellows with flapper

[Hitech]

I need to replace the exhaust bellows on my VP 280 with one that has a flapper. Can you add the flapper to the existing bellows?

Will this one work?

Re: Volvo 280 Exhaust Bellows with flapper

I had a 280 drive, mine used the bellows with the built in flapper, on some models thay had a flapper at the end of the exhaust plate above the prop, I believe you can not have both ... it will cause issues, I'd go with the bellows with the built in flap, most of the volvo bellows had small holes in them, to allow water to drain out, make sure they are facing down ... I don't think you can add a flapper to an existing bellows ... I wouldn't risk doing it ... for fear of it coming apaert and having water come up the pipe into the engine.
