My Farmall used to shoot fire out the straight pipe, with a muffler on the 
flames stay in the muffler (though at night the muffler glows a pretty red.

My great uncle was convinced the muffler would "stifle the power" of the 
tractor. Maybe it does but I like running it a lot more with the muffler. I 
still wear hearing protectors.

We always put a spark arrestor on the tractor before pulling it into 
the barn.  Spark arrestor was a piece of window screen tied on with 
baling wire.
