Well the old Briggs powered McLane edger lost a bearing in the side cover and died, looked on Craigslist for a replacement then realized I had new Predator sitting in the cabinet. I got a little carried away as alway and decided to hot rod it a bit before the swap, custom side cover paint, custom exhaust and a re-jetted china doll carb and manifold. Even has a throttle...Its a beast and the neighbors are looking at me like I am crazy, runs great that's for sure. The predator series lives!!!!!!

Nice! Gotta question, is there enough room for the rope to clear housing after you wrap around recoil cup to start?

Thanks guys, just did the lawn, does well. The rope works great, plenty of room. Starts on the first pull, got a little thump to it.
