i have a jd 50 and its running rough seems to skip a bunch. did the basics plugs /cap/points/condensor. also wash/clean carb/fuelbowl. nothing still the same, then noticed it sounds like there is an air leak coming from the head or exhaust manifold. i think its the exhaust because it doesn't seem to have any white smoke when you give it some throttle.what would be a good way to check for a leak in this area, thought about spraying something there to see but don't want to use anything that is flammable near the hot exhaust. she could use a rebuild which i had planned to do next winter after this years hay. any help would be great thanks again jim.
