I recently bought a used 2 stroke Flymo to cut the small area of grass I have. Its a cracking thing and cutting the grass is much more enjoyable when you have an engine screaming away at your feet!
A question I have is what normally happens when you overload them, mine seems to slow down (as expected) then stall even if you lift the deck clear of the grass. It can be saved by quickly giving the primer bulb several pumps, then the revs will pick up again.
Its not a big problem if your careful on the thicker bits of grass, I just wondered if it was normal?
