Hey guys, I have no idea about small engine repair so i came looking for help. My father just found his old strikemaster auger and thinks we could get it running again. I need to pick up a few things and a carb kit is one of them. Are there different kinds of carb kits? Where can you get them? How much do they cost?
Any other suggestions about getting a 20+ yr old auger running would also be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance
Don't take me wrong, I'm not anti-technology. Battery powdered items will always have their place. I'm mean you don't want your girl friend or wife in the bedroom playing for their gas powered adult toys!! That would be a bit loud and smokey!
That’s right. My 84 year old dad loves his electric chain saw. Light weight and quiet. Besides, at his age he’s not cutting a bunch. Where as myself I want something with more power and heavier duty. Look at how many people have switched back to gasoline cars after running one in winter if you travel a lot.
As long as my strike master works I’ll keep using gas. Maybe my next will be electric, but who knows, you can find used gas ones pretty reasonable as others buy electric.
