Apparently I've never been around an un-molested big 3 pickup. I find them much

I have some small experience with the GM 6.2l which I didn't consider obnoxious.

It seems to me you have a variable definition for flooded.
To me flooded means theres more gas available than can be handled by the spark

Incorrect, at the end of your push you lift the plow blade and ride UP the
pile. My Cub Cadet 70 can make snowbanks 4' high! I can also repeatedly slam
into the pile pushing it back. Like I said before its amazing what one will do
and mine is way underweight.
That said you're right you need to
Wikipedia says Husky bought Poulan but Husky and Jonsered are both owned by
Electrolux. I suspect Poulan are actually made by the lowest bidder in China.
My Husky says made in Sweden on it.

Husky owns Poulan. So, doing some looking on lowes website, and no

But then I like small saws. My all time favorite is the 16
This thread has been running for several days now, but only focused on
fuel, carb, primer, etc etc.. There is another component set to that small
