TroyBuilt Super Tomahawk Chipper starts, backfires and then will not start again

rkkr21 on Jul 31, 2017

TroyBuilt Super Tomahawk Chipper (year not known, bought it at a garage sale) 5 HP Tecumseh gas engine I bought this chipper a couple of months ago. I clean the gas tank, replaced the gas line, added a filter. replaced the carburetor and spark plug. I did an initial adjustment on the carburetor and got it running, I even engaged the chipper. It started to backfire and then died. After that when it is cold, it starts and runs a few seconds and dies. Then it will not start again. I believe the previous owner mistreated it. the existing spark plug was broken and the chipper shaft was fairly rusted. When I first engaged it with the motor running the motor bogged down then got it spinning.Read More

Can't Pull Cord on Husqvarna 128LD Trimmer

Recently my Husqvarna stalled on me, then when I went to crank it the cord could not be pulled, no matter how hard I tried. I removed the crank case from the unit and it pulled freely, so the issue is further inside the trimmer. I suspect my wife ran it on unmixed gas while I was out of town, after she said which fuel can she used. I say that in case that may explain the issue. It seems to have seized up.Read More
