Loved it when it ran. But it needed a carb every year. And perpetual carb adjustments.


Yep. It's so aggravating. I needed my chainsaw in a bad way the other day and couldn't get it to crank. I just dumped another $110 into it at the beginning of the Summer too. This time will be the last time when it comes out of the shop and craps out again. Today my pole saw started acting fuel starved on one of my guys so I am sure it's about that time.

Yeah. I had to go with the sunk cost mentality to make myself turn lose of mine.

I got an echo because I'm pretty certain the Echo blower I've had for years would run on tiki torch fuel without missing a beat.
