  1. they put a new ignition module in it so the on/off works fine but the other problems have started since i got it back. wish it did cost £1.50 lol.
  2. Evening all, trust your all well and had a good new year. Before christmas I sent my 200t in for a service because the on/off switch was faulty (had to choke it to turn it off) ended up costing more than i thought, and since getting it back it just hasnt been right. its a pain to start, cuts out when on idle, and has mad the last few jobs a reel pain. any ideas what it could be please, if i cant sort it my self ill send it back to the place that REPAIRED it but its taking the out time to get it there that will be a problem. cheers mark
