Tecumseh Easy Start Performance

Tecumseh is advertising the L-Head design motor with "Easy Start Performance" and this motor is available on several lawnmowers that are on the market. Does anyone have any experience with these newer designs and do they typically start on the first pull? I am considering a mower with a 6.5HP Tecumseh

hey Lint... seems like you had the same update i just got . they do seem to be a bit better than the older engine and with the newer design of the carb and primer they might actually be ok. later chris

Thanks for the HP info guys. I have been wondering about the advertised hp of today's mowers. My 10 year old Toro is only listed at 4.5 and provided sufficient HP but I have been wondering why the newer mowers are coming in over 6 HP.
