Another power outage hit. This time, surging power. It was scary. Light bulbs dimming and brightening...then...POP! Unplugged everything, before getting smart, and turning off all the breakers.
No problem, I thought, pull out the generator. Did so and dang, the carburetor was gunked up! MY BAD! Thought I had staybil in the gas last time I used it? Apparently not! Went to bed, hoping Edison shows up soon. Morning time, nothing. Went to work on the generator. It took me way too long to learn the unit, and how much disassemble was needed to get the carb off. Got it all sorted just in time, because the power came back on. Oh well, now I know my machine better!
Over last weekend, I fired up the echo 2 stroke trimmer for the first time. I've been using the Honda, but it's too heavy, so I bought a sidewalk trimmer attachment, and it will be dedicated for that purpose. And the Echo is one fine piece of kit. Light, powerful, and idles smooth as silk. This is not your granddads 2 stroke! Used a can of TrueFuel 40:1 and the machine ran perfect, and didn't stink! So NICE!
