Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.) - loud muffler


Expert: John C. Bridgers Sr. - 6/29/2007

Question
John, I have a 10yr old 2500 series Simplicity (Massey) Tractor 1692493.  It has a 12HP B&S I/C model 289707, type 0113-01, code 9503294B.  that muffler is LOUD.  it looks like surface rust on most of it, but it is solid, stout, loud and proud.  how can i tame that bugger?  do you know of a good aftermarket solution under $100?  i saw a SuperTrapp S5 + resonator setup that ran around $100.  i don't know if would fit so great though.  thank you for making time for this forum.

Answer
Hello Brad:

From your Description it Sounds Like the Internal Baffles of the Muffler have Deteriated. The Part Number for the Muffler is B&S # 691874 and Lists for $35.00. Hope this Helps. I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Let me Know What Happens, Please. Thanks.

Good Luck

Respectfully

John
