Default Help! I need a muffler

I have a Robin EC04er 40cc 2stoke engine. I would like to put a muffler on like what is on the frame mounted 2stroke engines kits. ( short pipe from the engine then the canester )Do any of you know if they will fit the Robin.. It's a two bolt flang mount. Bolt holes are 38mm center to center. Spooky Tooth said his will NOT fit. I guess I could cut the flang off, and make one. Any info, or Ideas ? Thanks . Bill

I would try a mower shop or the Tractor supply Store, you'll likely find something to fit or at least modify to fit.

Your setup is beautiful.


An electric powered recumbent.
About $3,000.00 looks like.


I do homemade recumbent s
some say they are worth at least $2500.00. I dont think so.
Just easyclones.
Not as pretty as yours for sure.

I am cheap I would have spent $6.95 at ace for a muffler.
