One step I forgot to add, was that I had to unbolt the lifter to the exhaust valve. To be able to hit the exhaust valve spring. Thank you, all for watching
@@Morganandkarter If it is backfiring it could be from a couple of things: possibly the carb, the valves being out of adjustment, or even the ignition coils need gapped.
Now I gotta just take the time to check into this valve issue, I believe I have the identical issue on my murray lawn mower that's been converted to a snowblower machine. Smoking, popping intermittently, and I believe that the past owners weren't using non ethanol fuel.
