To prevent poor acceleration going forward, I finally got enough courage to remove the spark arrestor on my Quiet Tech as it will eventually carbon up and affect back pressure. It took ~1 hour for the first time proceeding cautiously. The plastic floor skid plate must be removed as well as the exhaust extension. Once you see the arrestor, it can be removed by loosening the clamp bolt a few turns with a pair of needle-nose vice grips....twist the arrestor and off it comes. I'll do my '20 next.
