I have faith in MR Ulike, he got my MS200s sorted for me.

 

As the entire engine is 12 years old I suspect a lot of it is beyond cost-effective repair. There are a few items on thiefbay which may be worth considering. Just gotta spot something close enough to go and look at... OR see if any other arbtalkers find one.

 

Something is bound to turn up, Gromit....

Weld a couple of 19mm ring spanners to the side of the con rod to strengthen it.

 

Drill some holes in the cutting wheel, remove the engine restrictor, duct tape the leaf-blower to the air intake and jobs a goodun.

 

If it wasnt for the great advice on here this web-site would be nothing:lol:

That's what I meant!

Better luck next time Shane.

How much is a new one, £1kish?

[Shane]

There's some people on ebay selling 'genuine' ones for around £600.

But who knows, I'd rather buy from an arbtalker if poss.

I could even offer my old foot-spa in part exchange.

Honda GX390 QX Petrol Engine

 

got a honda from here couple years ago, was good price and helpful staff.

Watch if you are buying a generator one they usually have a tapered shaft you will need the straight one.

 

I bought a 13hp one from GEM Engines they were not that expensive.

Loncin G420 replaces the GX390 , also comes with electric start as standard .

Good quality Chinese engine , Loncin is fitted by many O.E.M'S now inc BMW ! our experience with them on ALKO lawnmowers has been faultless , in my opinion are better than Honda as they do not seem to suffer from the carb issues that Hondas do .

P.m me if interested I will be happy to quote
