Gizmo,
when pasting an ebay link if you just go as far as the question mark and copy and past that it will open the link directly. Yes doubt he will ever get a sucker to bid on it.

Yes there's still a few folks out there that are happy to obtain and use 2 strokes, but the majority see them as a PITA because of having to mix fuels themselves when BP stations used to have a dedicated ZOOM pump at most sites which made it rather easy.

I eventually parted with that Victa Full Crank I had which I couldn't give away on here and it finally sold for a whole $25 to what I think was a dealer.

Most people just get all caught up in the more modern looking units with Mag wheels and straight Petrol engines, in actual fact many are not even aware of 2 strokes and what they are all about, these are the clowns that generally will straight fuel one and kill it.

Cheers,
BB.

Are leaf blowers, chainsaws and whipper snippers all four stroke now? Not last time I checked. They need their fuel mixed too. Fuel containers aren't that expensive for keeping a couple of different mixes.

Ahh, if only victa had kept producing the thumblatch catcher series, they would be in better shape today!

Honda's are all 4 Stroke now, haven't really looked at much else to be truthful. When exactly will 2 stroke stuff be totally outlawed ?

Hi all petrol heads,

In 20 years time people will be saying unleaded fuel what's that?
