WH_cyber_nerd 16 #1 Posted August 6, 2023 I was mowing yesterday and my muffler popped off. Was wondering if anyone knows what I can replace it with, and if I should bother replacing the flange piece attached to the engine (not sure of the terminology). Thanks!

CCW 1,206 #2 Posted August 6, 2023 Here's thread on a muffler I just replaced. Found in at the amazonian website though @ebinmaine Gravely option mentioned in the thread sounds better. When I did my search to find the muffler I searched on Kohler mufflers. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd likely try using the existing pipe stub as the inlet pipe for the replacement muffler if possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is what I did and made the install much easier. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for linking that thread, I ended up getting the same one as you. Mostly because shipping options are quick and I have to mow haha. The gravely one does look like it might’ve fit nicer, though. We will see how it fits, I’ll put up some photos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My only concern is that the existing pipe is rusty and could break when i put a muffler clamp on it. I’ll update with results 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WH_cyber_nerd 16 #7 Posted August 9, 2023 If anyone is curious here was the result. Maybe an unusual way for it to sit but best I could do using the existing exhaust pipe. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
