Power Trac PT-422
Yesterday I was mowing lawn with my old Dixie Chopper. I got stuck in some mud. Grabbed a chain and my 422. When I started to pull the Dixie out, my 422 started rapidly backfiring. It has done this before. I thought maybe it was running on one cylinder so I pulled a plug wire to see if it would shut down, and did the same on the other side. It seemed as soon as I put a load on the engine to pull the Dixie it started the backfiring.
I shut down my 422 and let it cool down. Later I started it and it ran fine.
