[QUOTE="Snattlerake, post: 4056504, member: 44288"] I had an Echo electric. It was great except for one thing, when it was on it was full speed. If you let off the trigger, it was off. I needed a variable speed unit. That;s why I love my Stihl 2 stroke. It's heavy and kills my back without a strap but it by God starts and works. It does need about a minute to warm up, after that you can full throttle it or set it down in the grass thumping on idle, If you don't let it warm up it will either flood or choke itself to death and you're gonna play hell getting it going again. To winterize it I start it and let it warm up. Then I stop it and dump out the fuel, start it and let it run itself dry. I don't use anything but the premixed gas and oil in a can 50:1. [ATTACH type="full" alt="1686970522560.png"]385413[/ATTACH] It's expesive but it has stopped all of my carburation and running issues. No alcohol. I am currently looking for a battery unit that will run fro a few hours per charge, variable speed, and changeable heads, trimmer, edger, pole saw, etc. [/QUOTE]
