Stop in for a cup of coffee

Yep. I wish you were closer. I have a couple small engine shops on my old route that could help you out. I dropped off my old Mantis mini tiller in the middle of snow blower season and said whenever you get it done. I got a call a few weeks ago. It was done. Yep, a new carb, plug and some hoses. $100 later but it was junk before and it was given to me. He sold me some of that 2 cycle gas too. It's supposed to help with the carb issues.
I use the premix 2 cycle fuel also. My leaf blower is an intermittent use device so fuel is an issue.
