Hi folks (and especially Burnerman )
Recently picked up a 2001 PSE for £65 and, once it's going, it's great. Happily chomps through tall damp grass, even on the hill!
Getting it started is a pig, though, no matter whether it's hot or cold. The throttle cable works correctly and on "start" opens the butterfly valve up fully.
It does feel, physically, very difficult to start - sometimes it jams when I'm mid-pull, which is flippin' painful. Could it be something mechanical, like a bent shaft?
Does run absolutely fine once it's going - throttle control works well, and doesn't stall.
Cheers
Scott
