Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

OK, my snowblower has a Tecumseh engine, so when I read this I thought it could be either BS, correct, or old news.

You can't go wrong with a Briggs and Stratton engine. Tecumseh engines are prone to throwing piston rods through the crankcase wall if the oil level drops at all. The Tecumseh speed control is not nearly as robust as the Briggs and Stratton either. Briggs & Stratton is now back in the snow blower engine business in a big way with overhead valve engines ranging from 6.5 through 13 horsepower. Given prices, contracts and market inertia it's anybody's guess how quickly they will regain market share. However if you shop around machines can be found with these engines.

Anyone with any knowledge care to comment?  Here's the link.

everyone in the house went about brushing in a normal manor. a few weeks later the owner of the house relized that his camera was not stolen either and the film was full. after getting the film developed he got a sick shock. a pic of some guys bent over naked with the tooth brushes stuck up there a$$es.   .

Thanks Kneebiter.

I thought there was a reasonable answer.

the moral of the story is URBAN LEGAND. the story about the toothbrushes has been around for ever always a little different and happened to somebodys cousin or sisters boyfriend . you get the picture.

It just snows to blow ya:
You cant believe everything you read on the internet.

Hahahaha, leave it to Lint to throw in some ironic symbolism.

ps I didn't get it either , then the light bulb came on upstair.

Wouldn't your cousins sister still be your cousin?  (except in West Virginia that is, then your sister could also be your half cousin).

You can lead a Yak to water,

but you can't teach an old dog to make a silk purse out of a pig in the poke.
