    The Chicanic channel tested out a few things and said that I think it was mechanic in a bottle fixed the no start no run on a leaf vacuum that sat for two years. That's interesting that the Star tron cleaned up the fuel system. It sounded like one of the jets might have been clogged.

    Wash Machine Bearing Took a Dump

    It seems thst 20 years should be easy to achieve yet it seems more and more that manufacturers are cheapening their products.
