MF, this is what absurd is I just went and picked up an old sidepull full crank I won on ebay for $6, I knew if it had a good coil or pull start I would be miles infront.Put a new float needle in it and it fired up and runs well. This is where the absurd bit is, it is probably 35 years old and it is sitting here beside an as new Gardenline that doesn't run. People just don't get it
