Hey, first post and I have a few questions about a Victa CE909A1 tilt edger I picked up the other day for $25, first off what size engine are these? 160cc or smaller, I can't find anything to confirm this, it does not have the adjustable knob on the front of the carby like some I have seen, I'm not sure if the guy I bought it off found it in a dumpster because he reckoned he could get it to run for about 15sec but there is a self tapper holding the white cap on instead of a filtered jet, he has replaced the white cap with a new one and it has the yellow jet but he had siliconed the O ring in because it leaked.
So I know I need at least a new O ring and jet (carby kit) but I also took the exhaust off and the piston is pretty badly scored and the cylinder bore isn't too flash either, I've ordered a hone and when it gets here I'll take the head and bore off to see just how bad things are, so my question is ...... is it worth fixing? I don't mind spending $100 to $150 to have a good edger (it has a new blade) or should I just junk it, the body and everything else looks pretty good.
I know slightly less about 2 strokes than I do 4 strokes which is pretty much bugger all, anyone in the Rockingham Warnbro area that can help would be great.
Thanks Tom.
