I have a B & S 17hp Vanguard on my ride on Mower. The muffler needs to be replaced, but it appears to have a large muffler guard around it or it is the muffler. The Part number from my engine does not look like the muffler the repair shop suggests is the right one.
If they are right I have to remove the guard. hence the problem. The guard is approx. 10 inch X 3 and a half inches. I can't see how it can be removed without some part of the guard being cut away. Naturally, at this stage, I am looking for other options. Can somebody point me in the right direction as the parts list I have does not have a guard on it and the actual muffler is a lot smaller. Maybe, it is inside.
Thanks
Pete
