Am I right in thinking there bringing a new 261 out? Similiar to what they did with the 201?

 

 

It's already out? Haven't seen one but they're in this years catalog. Think they dropped some weight and upped the power a little

Had exactly the same on a lawnmower. Cleaned carb, changed plug and filter but still the same. Replaced the ignition coil and it now starts and runs as new. Think the insulation was breaking down with the heat.
