iahawk, nice to see someone has kept a toro s200 going.
i have a s300 that has ran great on whatever 32:1 i have, ussually pyb twc-3 muti outdoor .
then i have a s200 i picked up dirt cheap. i need to get the carb kleen.
it runs good no load. but needs choke to run any load. . this one will be my new main machine and will get a diet of amsoil saber @ 100:1.

ps. i have a 12v starter on the s200 till i get a 120v. its started in the wood room so no coldstarts. 80+°F storage.
 
JR, thanks, love those old Toro S200's, too. I used one as a kid a long time ago and thought it's be great to have one again.

Found 1 runner on CL for $35 and 1 non runner for $20...ended up using the non runners motor..after a carb kit, some new gaskets, fuel line, paddles, scraper bar and drive belt and a good cleaning she's in pretty good shape for a 33 yr old blower.

Probably keep running premix as long as we don't get a ton of snow.
