They have no power, start harder then a lawn mower under water, and don't last very long. If its cold out forget about getting it going. I had a boss that had a fairly new one and it was a piece of crap. He had the heads off it twice, wore out the flywheel from cranking it all day long. Once it was going it was fine other then low power. We used to leave it running all day while we worked because even after it was hot the stupid thing would crank forever before going. Keep starting fluid handy.
