So it looks as though my silencer has broken up inside, I'm yet to rip it to bits as I've just rejetted on the path outside my house as some ****ard has blocked the alley letting me into my back garden with scaffolding (the great windy day 2013 ruined his roof :p).

Anyway, bust silencers, tell me everything! I'd rather rip out what I can and carry on than buy a new one atm, money is like women are not after all!
 
Undo screws, drill out rivets, pull apart and investigate. Unless it's completely corroded or a weld has broken, just replace the packing.
 
The perforated steel tube was snapped at both ends, removed the lot and riveted back together, this'll do fine until I buy a new one!
 
This isn't that uncommon, the metal is thin. Google to find some perforated tube the same thickness & weld in for permanent fix. No point wasting money on another muffler; stock is a good unit.
