Is tecumseh on the skids?
I went shopping for a replacement short block/ engine, and one OPE store was saying he expects Tecumseh to fold up it's tent soon? I heard that they were also bought out by someone else.
I suppose I could google it, but wonder if anyone here has input. I liked the new simplicity blower and bought it instead (*B&S engine!).

  it is true  folk.      tecumsehpower.com   read all about it

By the looks of the information provided, it would appear that Tecumseh might see an infusion of cash and maybe some re-assessment and re-organization of their plant(s).  Either way, let's hope they not only survive but flourish.  Competition is good.
