1" on a B&S engine?..sounds small?....or does Judson choke them down for some reason?

Last 2 eng. I've had, Onan and Kohler are both 1.25" header pipes into 1.5" Y at exit.

No its a stock B&G muffler. I have to buy a new one. The welds that holds the manifolds exhaust pipes to muffler are done that's why it's loud.

by ACE Services Tue Aug 18, 2015 7:17 pm

What would you think about an exhaust manifold without a muffler the hx would be the muffler. Did not think about the muffler lot of heat loss there. Does your muffler set across the back of the engine.

by Mo Tue Aug 18, 2015 7:42 pm

Yeah I thought about that ACE probably be cheaper too. I have some more testing to do

by ACE Services Tue Aug 18, 2015 7:49 pm

Let me look around the shop tomorrow I might have something for cheap.

by Mo Tue Aug 18, 2015 8:19 pm

Sounds good.

I was thinking about just using the manifold pipes and just add flex hose to each one connecting to a Y at the HX

So I used my inline thermometer to test the heat with the HX. The machine needs to be on and under load for at least 20 minutes before it starts cooking.

Next test will be with a new muffler and the test after that will be with muffler removed and exhaust directly to HX. I still need to test heat with 6 flow wand.

by Mo Sat Aug 22, 2015 3:12 pm

Now just because your QD are hot to the touch does not mean thw water atw is hot. I cleaned a rug with my 6 flow wand and the temp was between 110-112 with exhaust

So to recap 160 ATM - 110 with a 110 foot hose. I get my new muffler on Wednesday

by ACE Services Sat Aug 22, 2015 4:22 pm

Not to bad considering the size of the hx the heat loss from leaky exhaust system.

by Mo Sat Aug 22, 2015 4:28 pm

I'm wondering how much of an increase Ill see without the exhaust leak. The same you think?

by Davey Cracker Sat Aug 22, 2015 6:49 pm

2 things.........

You need an inferred thermometer.

And, you used two different thermometers to measure, which can't be an apples to apples comparison.....same one needs to be used for both. wink

BUT here is the good, you look Hawt in your Hawaiian tank top, and your choice in music. dancing

by dp1 Sat Aug 22, 2015 7:02 pm

I think he was comparing the results between the 2 thermometers just to make sure the inline thermometer is reading correctly.

And I couldn't agree more on the tank top, I gotta get him a new muscle shirt next time I go to Hawaii Razz

by Mo Sat Aug 22, 2015 7:03 pm

I used the the digital to make sure the mechanical thermometer was right and it was.

What would you point the infrared thermometer at?

I point mine at anything I want to take the temp of, it does work on water too. wink

by Davey Cracker Sat Aug 22, 2015 7:29 pm

That digital probe thero is prob good, but I'd use it on both just to get an accurate difference, if I were measuring.

by Mo Sun Aug 23, 2015 6:16 pm

I think my regulator might be failing. I keep loosing pressure. I can get it to prime up again but the loose pressure again.

Is this the one for the TNT ACE?. I'm going to order a rebuild kit too.

by ACE Services Sun Aug 23, 2015 6:51 pm

That should work, but what's the price. I've always liked the suttner regulator st230 look at it. Screw the top off and take the center spring out other wise you can't get the pressure down to 100 psi or less for upholstery cleaning. You have to add a tee to one side but thats all. Check it out for the price.

by Mo Sun Aug 23, 2015 6:59 pm

That one in the link is 81.00. Ill take a look at that one thanks.

by Mo Sun Aug 23, 2015 7:26 pm

That one is 40.00 ACE.
