Well with my luck it was bound to happen. Only had it for a week and was running fine the first time I took it for a spin, but know after its been running for 10mins and I go to shut it off it lets out a loud bang from the exuast pipe, any ideas? :thumbs:

running rich and unburnt fuel is escapeing and pooling in the exhaust to the point it reaches a combustable mixture and the heat in the exhause ignites it maybe.

that is what I thought. When the tractor is running it stinks, the whole backyard smells like exaust, and I have a decent size yard, and when I come in I smell like exuast. Is this a simple fix or somekind of involved process. :thumbs: I am pretty good when it comes to 4 wheel drives and older cars but tractors and small engines....well when you dont know have another beer and the answer will come.

should just me a simple carb adjustment on the mix screws but dont turn them to the point its running to lean cause that will cause over heating.
