Hi w0z,

It just so happens my troy "Horse" has a Tecumseh engine. They used to be built about 12 miles from my Wisconsin home. They shut down and moved to Brazil. I have two great friends who lost their jobs.

I have a Harbor freight card, they are great for returns if it doesn't work. New carb and engine for $150.00 = no brainer.

I can't Thank you enough for offering that solution!

Will advise!

Bob

That might be illegal contraband soon in Stupidfornia.

They want everyone to use electric chainsaws, lawnmowers and I'm not sure what they will require for generators. I have an $1,100 Honda to power the fridge when their "clean energy" can't supply the grid or fires take out power lines... yet they say sales of those new will be outlawed too...

It might make sense to stock up and "trade" them....

newsweek.com
Generators and emergency response equipment would also be affected.
I wonder if they will run extension cords to the forest fires to power all the chainsaws needed to fight fires....
