Sometimes blowing the mufflers up. Just a thought.
I have not changed anything yet. It sat at the shop from Monday til today. The shop called today and said they needed the mufflers replaced to work on it. I thought they would weld on new mufflers but i had to drive it about 7 miles one way to the muffler shop and back. It gave me no problems driving it there with two blown mufflers and did ok on the way back until about a half mile from the shop it died ( think it flooded??) I fired it back up and it back fired shortly after but nothing like before. I limped it to the shop and they are going to finally look at it tomorrow. It is an attention getter for sure.
