Re: Ch150 Exhaust leak

It's not steel - it's aluminum, i was wrong But it is hard and solid. Nothing like what i replaced it with.

Re: How to achieve the polished rims look???

Why not media blast them (or even pressure wash) and then 'polish' the aluminum? It wouldn't be chrome, but it would be still pretty cool. You could wax it and it might look good for a few months. then re polish and the like.

Re: No Fire???

Well, i'm at a loss. It feels like a clogged exhaust, or a fuel issue, but I can't say much more than just that feeling. If it doesn't but putter a bit when there is fuel in the cylinder and air can get in, then air can't get out. But i don't know as much as you about this particular engine. How lon...
