I haven't been able to fault mine so far Rob. It starts first or second pull after putting it away dry and drained, and burbles smoothly. I find the choke linkage less than elegant, but it works properly. So far I haven't dared to let the emergency hot-water dump feature work - I always stop the engine if I won't be spraying for more than 20 seconds. However that is just me being hyper-cautious. I once destroyed the main hydraulic pump on a front loader/backhoe by allowing it to cavitate, and I don't want to do it again.
