I've got two Echo® products: a weeder and a chainsaw. I've had both for about the same time,
roughly six years. After two years, the weeder crapped out, symptomatic of a failed carburetor.
Treated both about the same; ignoring winterizing methods of removing the fuel, etc. Always
changed the oil and mixed the fuel correctly.
So why is it the saw keeps rippin' and the weeder is dead? Different carbs? Ethanol has been
wrecking havoc with two cycle engines and more. Turns those clear tubes and hoses into goop.
