Couldn't figure out why my combine engine didn't run right. It is a Chrysler 318 v-8. It just sounded off. I checked everything, carb, electrical, but it just didn't run right. Then I noticed that one muffler had nothing coming out, and I mean nothing at all. So I even pulled the valve cover to check if the valves were stuck, but they were moving fine. That's w hen it hit me that the exhaust could be plugged, so I pulled that muffler. Seems the squirrels or mice had decided to use that one for storage. The entire muffler was packed full of corn, now turned black and oily from the engine. It was so tight that nothing could get out so one half the engine didn't fire. It started right up and ran on just 4, even had decent power. Lol. Well it has more power now tho. Just knocked all the corn out and put it back together and it runs on all 8 now.
