A guy I bought a couple of Lawnboys from this past summer messaged me on facebook today. Just now read it.
I don't know how old the guy is but I'd guess early 30's. His son can't be more than 15. Where they live, seedy part of town would be an understatement. First time I went there, I was unaware. Second time I went, I was armed.
I got the following from the dad.

I have a Lawnboy from 1999 I stihl use. It's great. I adjusted teh running speed once, looked up the spec, adn I have to keep it tilted to the left when not running, because the carb needle does not seal, and all the fuel leaks right our into (and then I presume out of) the crankcase. It is an excellent machine. I bought it because it is light enough for me to put in a pickup without risking a back strain. With Stihl Ultra at 50:1, it's hard to see how this is a source of too much pollution. I wish they were stihl avaialble.

Morning fellas, split some wood and found me some locust beetles... Are that hungry for kiln dried wood?

I have a load of hickory on my truck that looks just like that. Brought it home from Dad's house because he didn't want to bring them indoors over the winter.

Then again, it could be locust. I haven't the foggiest.

MA180 china parts hit the porch. It took twenty days for this last order.

Trying to start the big Remy. Pops on choke but won't take off running. Metering lever a tad too low? [emoji108]

Should have pulled the welsh plug I guess.[emoji37]

Wore myself out pulling on the Remy.[emoji26]

So we put together the MS180 engine. I can sit in my chair for that.[emoji108]

This last order from Huztl/Farmertec has me confused.[emoji848]

Several things I ordered are absent and a couple things (piston kit for one!!) are present.

I'll have to make a list and email 'Suzy Wrong'.‍♀️
