There are dozens of good tachs out there, i am just partial to the DTI TT20K because it was the one i was taught with by my mentor years ago. Plus Walt (Afleetcommand) uses it so that's the best recommendation i can see!!

For now Ralph! I've had them come back after a few days so we'll see. Good thing is I'm only into it for 11 bucks plus some starter rope and a handle.

China actually makes some quality stuff. But we never think about the country of manufacturer on the good stuff. For one, the iPhone and other Apple products are fully manufactured in china. And no one associates the iPhone with the adjectives Cheap, Chinese, or Crap.

@@killer2600 Foreign Companies, like Apple, manufacture their products in China. Makita(Japanese) makes some of their tools in China. There are some nice things made in China, when there is quality control and oversight. There is a LOT of crap from there as well.

Just rescued an Echo HC-160A from the local scrap yard, dry compression is 50psi, wet is 175! Is it worth fixing? Was thinking of just dropping in a new piston ring and hoping for the best.

Idle on a 125 BV is 2800-3200. Max speed blowing is 8600, max speed vacuuming is 7500. Go to Manualslib.com and search for “Husqvarna 125B Operator’s manual”. The specs are on page 21

I have a Stihl FS38 trimmer. I runs erratically no matter how I adjust the carb. One minute it’s screaming, then it’s lopping. The muffler was totally plugged. Could the main seals now be leaking? I know how to change them. I don’t have a vacuum/ pressure tester to check it. Bruce sent me over. Thanks, Jim
@KensSmallEngineRepair3 жыл бұрын
Hold it while idling then rotate it 90 degrees for 4 seconds, then another, then another. A seal leak would change rpms wen the unit was rotated. Make sure the equipment is warmed up too. Chinese carbs are cheap why not try one on it? Is the fuel line and filter good? What about the vent?
