Whichever kind you get (I use stihl), use echo red armor oil. Don't use stihl oil. It's trash. It'll purr like a kitten with red armor and won't get the build up of deposits

Maruyama 30CC

Have their M300QC and a few attachments. Hard to find many dealers, but it’s legit 5yr commercial warranty, Japanese made.

I have an echo 225 and an echo pe-225.

Only run TruFuel.

I have a lawn service and recently moved and they didn't come cut the new house for about 3-4 weeks. So I had to break out my equipment that I haven't run in a good 6 months. Both pieces started up easily with 2-3 pulls.

Shindaiwa/Echo you are buying the best. I have 30 lawns on the side and have used Shindaiwa equipment since day one. Of course fuel lines popping off every now and then happen, new carbs are like $25,dirty fuel and whatever, those engines run and they won’t quit. If you want to see real power go up a notch or 2 from the basics

Agreed. I bought an echo from someone for $75 a few years ago. I've left it outside in the rain hanging on the fence for weeks at a time. Ive done nothing to it except use trufuel or whatever brand I buy.
