I guess I will be the first to say it. I own several Stihl MS311s, some 291s, a Makita and some Husqvarnas. The day someone comes out with a good battery powered saw, with long battery life and torque, I will pitch all of my other saws in Lake Allatoona and buy a battery powered saw. So...
Sock filter in the fuel tank. It is 20 years old. You have to drop the tank and replace it. I let my mechanic do it. As a side note, I may sell my last 7.3.

I fired him. He got on drugs. Regardless of the manufacturer, I would not want to hook up a trailer to anything with any play in it. The more linkages, the more play, the less stable. Not that important with the small trailer, but the larger trailers that could be an issue.
