    So I got a rush of blood to the brain and had a look at repacking the muffler on this little quad, bugger the proper repacking stuff is expensive! $40 for the size I need... Nup.

    $2.08 at New World gets a 3-pack of jumbo stainless pot scrubbers, I welded a small section of exhaust pipe in over the top of the existing tube to redirect the exhaust gas forward towards the inlet end of the muffler and packed a pot scrubber between the pipe and the case of the muffler. Drops the noise down to the same as a weedeater roughly, still need hearing protection of some form but not shattering the neighbourhood. Next issue is the clutch doesn't seem that happy, might have to have a look at that again.

    Runs fine on 40:1 though for the OP...
