Where is your source of the recall? Companies typically don't give customer inside info on when an recall will occur, even though they have plans.  They let everyone know of a recall at the same time through  an official bulletin.

Not busting your $#%* or anything like that.  If the impending recall is not Toro's stance, existing owners of the 421Q maybe led to expect one and will be disappointed or outraged when Toro doesn't do a recall.

It doesn't bode well for me that this is my 7th post. I completely understand how you, or anyone would question any of this info. This was from multiple sources (6). There really is no "one" source I can point this to.  The only thing I can say......I'm really good at digging to get info.  From what I understand, Toro been made aware of the problem for the last 2 months.  The info collected is Toro is looking into changing the composite chemistry within the motor.

Yeah I saw that. Wonderful...
Stabil has a new product: from their site.

Looks like Toro customers (like me) will be heading to the store for the new Sta-Bil.

I wonder if adding Sta-bil to the gas would help at all?

I ask the same question, and Toro said "No" (Sta-bil will not help). 
 
I've owned mine for 1 month.  I have always used small amount of Sta-bil in the gas.  I have not had a gas leak or any other problems.
