i have a little exhaust leak somewhere....and i was just wondering is it bad to drive the car with the leak?

i know i willl probably burn out my O2's but other than that will it be ok to drive for a couple days till its fixed?

Quickin

If its little you can drive like that forever and the o2's will be fine forever.

Depends on how big it is.

Do you know if its after or beforethe o2's?

Jack it up in the morning, one side really high. Start it up when its cold and quickly run your hands all up and down the pipes, starting at the collectors. It won;t get to hot to touch for a couple minutes, it'll take ya about 45 seconds to check all the piping from both collectors back to the muffler. Thats how I found mine.

Find a shop that has a leak machine (it's basically a smoke machine) and run it up the exhaust pipe then find where the smoke comes out

Then that goes back to the question of how big the leak is.
