If you go to a muffler that is above the hood you can keep the water that will seep down the muffler pipe out by taping out the manifole with an inch and a quarter pipe tap. The buy a muffler that will slip over an inch and a quarter pipe nipple. Only takes a short time and the water problem is gone if and when the tractor is out in the rain. I have done this for years. Before you start to tap the manifold out stuff a rag down in the hole to catch the shavings. When you start the tractor it will blow the fines out. If you go with an under the hood muffler I would"n bother as that muffler will shed the water away from the opening.

Dick, I guess I"m slow to pick this up, but could you elaborate a little bit on this. Sounds like a good idea, keeping the water out that is, but I"m having a hard time getting a mental picture of it.

Thanks!

I had posted pictures of this years back but I can"t find the pictures in my site. I must have lost them when Photopoint went belly up. I will take some more pictures when I get a chanch. All of my tractors set outside so I tap out every one and I have two tractors that I am working on at a snails pace but still needs taped out.

the production muffler slides "into" the exhaust manifold. water can run down the slight crack between the muffler tube and the manifold hole.---- what you do is take a 1-1/4 inch pipe nipple about 4 inches long and screw it into the manifold hole. get a muffler with a slightly bigger tube off a larger tractor, and slide it "over" the pipe nipple. now there is no access for rain water. also stabalizes the muffler a little.
