So you basically want to cut a notch in the wood? If so, either a good sharp chisel or a router. L8R, Matt

That has the Pulsa-Prime carb. Could be a couple things. Possible water in the tank, clogged pickup screen, or bad pump diaphragm. You can find the diaphragm kit at Lowe’s or any mower repair shop. L8R, Matt

Here’s the upper shaft that comes from the engine. https://powermowersales.com/husqvarna-537083001 L8R, Matt

If you were thinking about a push blower, have thought about a power broom? That would definitely get the wet leaves off the driveway. YARDMAX 209 Cc Power Sweeper, YP7160 https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/yardmax-209-cc-power-sweeper-yp7160 L8R, Matt

I just picked up my new Stihl MS261c a couple days ago. The guy at the counter told me that he recommends running 40:1 if I mix my own fuel. I told him that everything I own is 2 stroke and that’s the ratio I already use. But I did buy the can of Motomix to get the extra year on the warranty...

Oh I definitely will. But it will be a while. Waiting for the call to get on the schedule for shoulder surgery. Been off work for 8 weeks now and I’ve lost what little mind I had left! L8R, Matt

My new Stihl MS261C and just had my new storage shed delivered. L8R, Matt

Weeeelllllllll…… I finally made the decision and went with the Stihl MS261C. It was a tough one, but basically it came down to the M-Tronic was just slightly easier to do a reset with than the Autotune. I bought the can of Motomix instead of the 6pk of Ultra oil because as soon as I use up the...

Excellent repair tip, and you can all but be 100% guaranteed that it will last as long as the tiller itself. L8R, Matt

Does anyone know if the Husqvarna 550xp Mk II still has bottom end issues? I’ve read that the 5 series had reliability issues from using a heavier piston and something about the crankshaft. Or was that from the original 550xp? I know the 550xp Mk II is basically a ground up new design saw, not...

I’m leaning more towards the MS261C because from everything I’ve read, it’s a little easier to reset the M-Tronics compared to the Autotune. L8R, Matt

Nice. My Predator is 43cc. Still more than most of the other mini tillers out there. Happy tilling! L8R, Matt

It works pretty good. I was lucky enough to get a 25% off coupon from Harbor Freight so it was around $160 after taxes, or somewhere close to that. Is it like the old Troy-Built Horse tiller I used to have? Nowhere even close. But this Predator takes up a whole lot less space and I can pick it...

There’s definitely better oils out there, but lower quality oil is still better than none. L8R, Matt

That looks a lot like my Harbor Freight Predator tiller. How many CC’s is the engine? L8R, Matt

Nothing fancy, but I have this clipped in my front pocket every day. Benchmade Mini Boost Black. L8R, Matt

Absolutely. Oil quality has a lot to do with it too. L8R, Matt

I use 6.4oz of oil in a 2 gallon can of ethanol free gas. I run this mix in everything I have and I’ve never run into any ooze coming from the exhaust. Just picked up another quart of Amsoil Saber. Now I did try a two gallon can of some Pennzoil XLF at 32:1 for my Lawn-Boys and I had oil drips...

No way, man. Dual points distributor and a Carter AFB!😂 L8R, Matt

May not help much, but this is the piston and exhaust port of my Husqvarna 128LD trimmer that’s been run until recently on nothing but Amsoil Saber and Echo Red Armor at 40:1. I don’t trash my equipment, but work them hard while still taking care of them. I’ve extensively used the edger, pole...
