Toro PM question Original Message Feb 9, 2011 4:59 pm
So far the 221 has performed fantastic!! I am so glad I bought it now. The weather is to warm up and no snow for at least a week. Today I ran the Toro till it died, reprimed and tried to start it. Now is the carb empty now and if not how do I drain it? Does it have a little screw on it like my Honda mower does? I presume the shroud comes off first.

Yes, those new plastic gas cans balloon up real nice in hot weather. Once they stretch, they keep their shape too.
Funny thing is mine are all the reverse as they are sucked in rather than pushed out. Damn Kalifornia making laws for the rest of the US.

Yes, Kalifornia is a really "progressive" stage. So progressive that they are pro-active in enforcing issues problems that other states don't have. And the governor drives a gas guzzling Hummer. Yeah!

That's just it, it's Kalifornia that has those problems, not the rest of us. They should keep their laws to themselves and leave the rest of us alone.
Ah well no snow for a while now, so I have a lot of gas already to go for the next storm, if we have one.

We're in a big thaw now for the next 5 days. It may be in the 50's and I can wash and wax the snowblower. All the snow should melt to make room for new one. That's good.

Was 48 Sunday and 50 Monday this week. Looking at the extended forcast and winter might be over for us this year. Maybe I should take my snowblower apart and paint it.

Well here it's -7F with the windchill during the day. No snow predicted but they say Thursday it could get up to 40F. That would be unusual for us in Feb. Hopefully it won't get too warm, as we are going to a winter RallyX on the 27th. Hard to race on snow with no snow.
