440 ICD Blacck smoke

Starting to get a lot of black smoke when running my crawler.Just noticed the today. So i quit early.

take spark plugs out and turn it over.

if it doesn't turn over easily... you've got bigger problems.

Ground driven brushhog?

A guy was telling me to get a ground driven brush hog yesterday.

I never hear of one.

Are they the real deal or junk?
