I have used loads of different strimmers. The Honda gx 25 is by far the best engine it runs for ages on one tank you have far more control than a 2 stroke as you can get alot of low down torque. The engine lasts alot longer as 4 stroke lubrication is better. I would say it's more productive than 2 stroke. It has less power but more torque and torque gets work done.

@@FarmLearningTim The only real down side is weight it is 1kg heavier than a 2 stroke but I never found it a issue. I would never buy another 2 stroke brush cutter.

Is 4stroke 35cc is good enough to cut long grass and weeds efficiently???plz answer
Another informative video, thanks. I switched from 2 stroke bent shaft brush cutters, to a Honda GX25 straight shaft brush cutter after the motor of a bent shaft just fell off while in use. One of the best moves I made, starts first time every time. I've been that impressed with the Honda 4 stroke engines that the only 2 strokes I have now are my chain saws. In fact my Honda lawnmower was stored for 18 months, I didn't drain the fuel (forgot in the rush of house moving). When I came to start it I was expecting problems but after 6 pulls it started! Ran a little rough for a few minutes then as good as ever. Keep the videos coming please, I've learnt lots of great tips from them.

Worth noting to change the oil first month or 10 hours use to get rid of break in shavings. Worth it for peace of mind and only 80 ml. Mine runs like a dream had it nearly 6 years now and still starts nearly first pull.

I have the 35cc Honda trimmer for 4 or 5 years now. I like it fine. Lately the exhaust burned thru the plastic cover over the muffler. Kinda inadequate materials but not a show stopper. I just opened up the hole so the exhaust blows straight out the side.

Can you please tell me how heavy is the machine and can you adjust the lenght as I am a shorty and also can not carry heavy things. I have an electric Ryobi but I am absolutely hate it. I have a small hand and take of the battery is so difficult. I have to press one side to a corner of a brick push it and the same time push the otherside with my hand. Even than I gave to struggle to take the battery off. If I knew how difficult I would of never bought the b.thing. So now I am looking for anothet which I can use easily. Also I am buying the refill like no tomorrow so a metal blade would be the solution for me. Let me know please if you can would be suitable fof a short woman to use this machine. Thank you. Also I had to subscribe. I am only 4 years on the land lot to learn. Cheers

I did have a stihl or however you spell it and like the chainsaw I got it’s shit it won’t start you need starter fluid on you or a can of INOX on you and the air box in half to get it going live this everyone need one

Sorry. A genuine Honda 4 stroke at $300?? No!!! That has to be a Chinese/Thailand knockoff motor. I put one on my old GX35 Honda, cost $250, it only lasted 18 months before it blew a gudeon bearing. The original Honda GX35 went ok and lasted quite a few years, but suffered on our hilly block. While Honda claim the 4 stroke 'splash' lubrication system will handle these conditions, my experience tells me thats not true. ( I am a mechanic). Consequently, I have gone back to a 2 stroke motor...spent a few dollars more on a Husquvana.
