I bought a new Honda self propell. Twin blades and a throttle like self propell. It can go as fast as you want to walk. A little pricey but it was worth it

I got a 7hp Toro push mower thinking it would be perfect for my grass. Is not.
My grass laughs at anything less that 20hp

Waiting for delivery of new starter solenoid for my 20HP Honda engine.
Why in the world does Honda put that fuel filter in such a pain-in-the-arse spot on the engine.
I only have ethanol available in my area (outside Houston). What to do?

I have a Stihl blower and weed eater, Love them both!

I just wish somebody made a 15-20 HP riding mower that had struts or shock absorbers. 20 years ago, that rough ride and uneven ground didn't hurt, but now it does. I used to enjoy mowing, but now it's a chore because my back hurts for two days afterwards.

Wtf? Man card is on it's way out Mr BFIV. Commercial zero turn ones have spindles with springs on them up front. I don't think any other ones do though
Just let some air out of the tires. They don't need to be at 95psi. Even I know that and I am 65

See? Told yall Hammertime was 65. (I DID let some air outta them tires.) Seriously, though, back ain't been the same since that ladder fall from cleanin out the gutters. I've been lookin long and hard at them zero turn mowers...

Try doing something with the seat springs. I know you can swap out the whole unit on tractors, so they might have something for mowers
I ruptured a disc and herniated another after a drunken, up all night, sex having, shower incident. Only thing that has worked was building up my back muscles to support it better. I can still make it hurt though.

My Stihl trimmer is less than a year old and had to replace the carb- Dealer said it was ethanol gas. Manual says it will run on 10% Eth or less - Factory would not warranty it- 80 bucks out of my pocket
NO ethanol NO ethanol THe manual should say NO ethanol
I still think Factory should have stood behind warranty

Anyone have the Kombi system from stihl? Reviews good or bad?
Posted on 5/5/13 at 8:36 am to Hammertime
Not sure if the 4 stroke spins any faster than the 2 stroke. It handles anything I need it for. Blower and chainsaw attachment are the tits. Starts on first pull everytime. It is a little heavier than my last 2 stroke but nothing I consider too heavy.

Yeah, I've been pricing out and researching the the differences between the Stihl Kombi and Echo PAS systems. Echo is cheaper but with less power and more warranty. Stihl obviously has the opposite.

I use Husky and have had success with them. I will say I have a cheap Poulan chain saw that is many years old, starts in a couple of pulls, and have done well thru the years. This may be an anomaly though.......

Startron for ethanol gas.
seafoam for engine cleaning and decarb.
Can't recall anyone ever claiming Seafoam takes care of ethanol in gas.

I have heard it once or twice. I tell people to just make it a habit of always buying regular gas and they won't slip up
It got to be a PITA this year dealing with all of the clogged carbs. That was the first thing I did when looking at engines
My stepdad has a Triumph motorcycle that has a clogged main right now. 2nd time it has happened

I had a post a couple of months ago that detailed how to repair a small engine. Not searching for it since I am on my phone, but you can look it up

If you must run ethanol, get some Startron.
