Loud exhaust. Sputters at startup. Smells like almonds. Quits after warms up. Today it just starts sputters then quits. It's a 4 cyc. Can't afford a donation or even get it to a garage right now.

Inspect exhaust for breaks or leaks. Have someone block off the outlet pipe with a rag to locate the leak.

After you have the exhaust leak repaired, the sputtering may go away
