Hello folks.
I have a 91 cruiser, the rear weatherstripping is in very good condition. No tears, etc. However, it seems to have shrunk up a tiny bit, maybe it's not as "juicy" as it once was. The downside is that I can smell some exhaust coming into the cabin on occasion. I have proof this is where it's entering, because when I go through a very dusty area, I can see dust tracks in numerous places across the weatherstrip.
So, other than replacing the weatherstrip all together, has anyone come up with any cure for this?
I was thinking about a thin layer of tape laid over the top. That would seem to be a workable solution, but what kind of tape? Something that would be durable, not too thick, and have excellent adhesion.
any other ideas?
thanks
Dana
