    New blower runs awful right out of the box

    I received my pacman screwdriver in the mail and adjusted the L/H screws. They were both very lean and the idle screw needed to be increased in speed. Seems to be working like a champ at the moment. Very smooth full throttle and no more bogging at idle or smoke. I just did a very quick tune to...

    New blower runs awful right out of the box

    You guys are definitely right about probably spending the same on something quality and forgetting about the trimmer but I'll admit the trimmer is actually awesome compared to the curved shaft one Ive been using for a few years. No more needing to hunch over and I can really get into some hard...

    New blower runs awful right out of the box

    I found a clearance sale on Walmart's website that was too good of a deal to pass up which was a Yard Machines 2 stroke combo pack of a 25cc leaf blower and straight shaft string trimmer for $138 and free shipping. Like at that price the trimmer is nearly free couldn't say no even if I didn't...

    Post your latest 2 stroke mix

    Just mixed up 1 gallon of 89 100% gas for a 40:1 super tech universal mix. Already used half of it.

    QSFS vs Magnatec.

    The choice should be Super Tech synthetic since its equally as good and $4 cheaper at Walmart.

    Bought the new 20,000 mile Supertech 0w20

    That implies that its nearly double the cost for a small piece of silicone. If Im going to pay nearly double the money for a product over a lesser version I expect a little more. Sort of like the jump from an extra guard and an ultra synthetic.

    Bought the new 20,000 mile Supertech 0w20

    The new ST 20k filter is a joke. Its the exact same filter as the old one with a silicone ADBV.

    Boxed Motor Oil WARNING

    You have solid logic but as a security measure Id put the box in a grocery bag. You never know. Just like using your favorite motor oil instead of some other brand it just helps you sleep at night.

    Boxed Motor Oil WARNING

    On a shelf in a cool dark place that never gets below 60 degrees or over 80 degrees along with all my automotive maintenance products. It has never been touched since purchase or in a possible scenario that could have led to user error from a puncture from something accidently hitting it.

    Boxed Motor Oil WARNING

    I suppose if I were to use my box oil in a timely fashion and not hoard it like I normally do even though that is the BITOG way Id buy it again. I only bought the 6qt box for a 4.6L V8 Mustang that took 6qts. I no longer have the car as of this month and nothing in my fleet that takes more than...

    Boxed Motor Oil WARNING

    In October 2019 I bought a 6qt box of Havoline 5w-20 conventional and I have yet to use it. Its a cardboard box with a plastic bag so I kept it in a very safe place for storage. Fast forward to 12/29/20 the plastic bag gave way and leaked out all the oil making a huge mess. If you plan on...

    QS Conv vs. QS HM vs. PYB

    Forget those options get the super tech. Will do the job just as good and be cheaper. In fact skip super tech and get chevron supreme which is about a $1 cheaper than super tech conventional in a 5qt. If you are looking to get cheap oil then you cant beat chevron supreme for $12 for a 5qt.
