One of the Best Ways to Fix a TEC Engine
Original Message   Feb 5, 2011 4:30 pm

If you have problems with a TEC engine not starting or running like Cr@p after repairing it 20 times  and spent hundreds of dollars on parts and labor.  My suggestion unbolt the 4 nuts that hold the engine  on the snowblower  and get yourself a new Honda Clone engine or even better if you can find a nice used Honda GX270 engine and you will have the best running Snowblower  you have ever owned.   It may even out-perform the  over engineered  Honda Snowblowers.

If you are getting paid for what you are doing No matter how much you Enjoy it,   It's a Job

Like Borat I never change a plug I inspect it once a season clean it lube the threads with a drop of engine oil and re--Install. I will only change a plug if the outside of the body is rusty. I have only seen 1 plug fail and that was in a 3 year old Honda powered lawnmower.
