[QUOTE="Gavin Allan, post: 1022910, member: 60736"] Gas weedwhackers and other 2-stroke engines will last longer if you can feed them fresh ethanol-free premium gasoline and quality oil mix. Treat each can of gas with some Stabil, and never use it if it is more than three months old. It is essential to run them completely dry before storage too. The gasoline these days is crap for 2-stroke engines. Mainly the ethanol is the big culprit, but the plastic carburetors and other el cheapo materials as to blame too. I am not surprised that Todd's older Homelite whacker is running great. They truly do not build them like they use too. If you got to buy new, look at Stihl and Echo. They are about the best built for cheap units. [/QUOTE]
