FWIW:
There are variations of that round muffler,
the $9.00 china/Mexico item is quite a bit louder than a genuine Kohler,Briggs
Onan etc, that cost $30.00 or so.
I once had a Briggs that lost the threads on the factory muffler, no problem I thought,went to the hardware and got a china cheapie.
Oh boy, it was almost as loud as no muffler.
I then carefully welded the original muffler around the pipe nipple and it was back to acceptable quiet.
