tim Posted June 5, 2011 Posted June 5, 2011 Question Why are lawnmowers 4 stroke and chainsaws, hedgetrimmers etc 2 stroke? Why does my father in law decide to dig a dandelion out of my front lawn with a decent screwdriver? Quote

liam42whu Posted June 5, 2011 Posted June 5, 2011 2 Stoke are lighter, less components, as for the screwdriver incident, sometimes a crappy one jus isnt good enough maybe? Quote

They are not all 4 stroke and 2 stroke......some are V8's As for the screwdriver.... at least he did not use your best kitchen knife Quote
bigbramble Posted June 5, 2011 Posted June 5, 2011 Two strokes are dying, emissions are awful due to inefficient combustion and the fact they burn their lubrication oil. Anything large enough to take a 4 stroke now does - for example lawnmowers. Typically they seem to have small side valve single cylinder engines. Quote
Stew Posted June 5, 2011 Posted June 5, 2011 I want to fit a V8 in my dads snow blower. It's a 200 or 250 cc just now, surely an easy swap! Quote
