I assume your referring to the flexible exhaust pipe that goes under the engine and oil pan out to the resonator ?. simply jack up the car and remove the exhaust pipe at the exh manifold on the front of eng. should be 4 or 6 bolts . do not break the studs off!! use penatrant oil if neccessary. then remove the clamp at the resonator area slide the pipe off . you may have to cut the pipe here with a hack saw if it is one piece or frozen/rusted. then replace it and clamp it back in place with a slip coupler that fits over the two pieces of pipe or weld it if you can.
Our Toyota dealer has estimated to be around $300.
i need to replace the flex shaft in my weedeater. how do i do it?
remove engine or transmission replace flex plate (flywheel).
The flex plate is bolted to the back of the crankshaft. It connects the motor to the torque converter in the transmission. To replace you remove the transmission and replace it.

Most car companies are going in the direction of creating fuel efficient cars and trucks, but you might want to contact Toyota at their website Toyota.com and ask them when they will start production on flex fuel cars. GM currently has vehicles that are flex fuel so go to Chevy.com or GMC.com and look at what flex vehicles are out on the road currently.
No you don't. They can cut the pipe and weld the flex pipe into place...otherwise it will get VERY costly
Its not that difficult, but you will get nowhere without a flex head ratchet and a little bit of creativity.
will bolt up but you may have to replace the flex plate ot tourque converter, and possibly the wiring the gos into it
It is important to know the cost of the repairs in a vehicle. For a 1998 Ford Escort it will cost between $20 and $50 to replace the flex plate.
You get a catalitic converter with flex pipe on ebay.com for arround $300 and labor will at least one hour (depends on region). You are facing a bill about ~$400.
The 1994 -1996 Toyota Camry has a flexible joint inline with the Rear Catalytic Converter. (Yes two converters!) The Flex joint develops a leak and then the vehicle sounds like a tank driving down the road. The Flex joint is welded onto the pipe so it is not replaceable. Fortunately the cost for the entire pipe with the converter is very reasonably priced! Replacing the entire Converter pipe will have the vehicle back on the road in very little time.
