I've never owned a Honda mower, just old Briggs & Strattons.. and never took them apart. So I wasn't aware they were using plastic engine parts
I'm glad I didn't know lol. But thanks for letting me know that
I have to say I've never had an old mower die, so I guess they were doing something right
But it's not really the fact they're using plastic in the mower engines that bothers me... that just triggered me lol, it's the fact they're using plastic in our modern car engines that really grinds my plastic gears. I'm currently replacing a cracked plastic radiator in a Lexus with 86k miles on it. A well maintained metal radiator most likely would have lasted the life of the car.
I'm also replacing a cracked plastic intake manifold on a mustang with 80k miles... a metal manifold would have lasted forever.
Honestly I'm just sick of all the disposable plastic they're putting in places they shouldn't be, like engines. Especially my car engines. Very frustrating when you have plastic under the hood where metal should be, because the companies want to cheap out and we end up paying the price literally
Okay rant over
