I just purchased a terra tiger tt-10. I have a few questions for you experts. How do I find out the year? It is a two stroke, so I assume most of these engines smoke pretty good? Any way to quiet the motor? Maybe insulate the exhaust? Will post pics soon. Thanks for all your help.

The engine shouldn't smoke if you use modern oil and todays mixture ratio, try going 35-40:1 rather than the prescribed 20:1 the terra tigers look like fun machines, hope you get them pictures up real soon
terra tiger mix
you might fry the engine at 35-40 :1. what color was it origionally? is therre a tag on the dash yet? model/serial #?

The color is yellow, The tag on the dash says model tt-10 serial # 1351
The guy I got it from just told me to run the same ratio as a chainsaw, like 40:1.
thanks for all your help. Also I would like to paint it. Have any of you have experience painting them? Shane
