I'm new to anything bigger than garden tractor. I bought a small Ford 1500 last year. It had a vertical exhaust that was rusted off right above the muffler at face level. As a temporary fix I put a rain cap on it. Never did fix it as I didn't use it much but when I did the exhaust fumes were horrible because it was right in my face.
This summer I sold the Ford and bought a Massey 135. It has a hoizontal exhaust under and out the back. I would have thought this would end the exhaust fumes but they seem to be almost as bad. I'm assuming because they rise. I am considering putting a vertical exhaust on not only to try and avoid exhaust fumes but also I hear the low horizontal exhaust is a fire hazard.
Any opinions on how to set up the vertical exhaust? How high, angle tip, etc.? The fumes get to me pretty quickly.
