my exhaust is constantly becoming loose and leaking from around the donut connecting to the manifold. Does anybody else have this problem?

Mine used to untill I replaced the donut. It is common for the donuts to go bad on any vehicle.

I have the same bad leak from my donut, I bought a new one, but I can't get it to stop leaking at all. The bolts are so tight that I can't turn them anyt tighter, but it still leaks like mad. Whenever it's running it goes tss, tss, tss, tss, tss, along with the rpms. It's irritating as hell.
