Do you mean it sounds like it may not be running on all its cylinders? Like a chugging sound that speeds up as the engine is reved? sparkplug may be fouled or a sparkplug wire may be worn out. Plugs and wires are not expensive and are not hard to change out. Our definitions of a chuffing steam train may be different but this is where I would start. Good Luck.


If you agree that the answer I provided is correct please remember to "accept" and/or mark it as "helpful" so I know I'm doing a good job. Thank you, I would really appreciate it.
