    What more could you ask for! To heck with the fussy generator, you only need so many things.

    Don't forget the intruder repellant. Your 1903 will work well for warding off any crowd.

    I am not sure but maybe the next county would be a safe distance to be from pelago if he had a gun rest and a cross hair on them, and depending on the firearm he decided to use the next county maybe not such a good idea either

    Check the brushes. I had a Lincoln welder that did that once. They can get a little dirt or other debris in there. Maybe a bug.

    every damn "Torro dealer does not work on the generator side" damn... found a guy in jville that thinks its a capacitor??? maybe anyway thurs morning it goes to him. If they are a authorized dealer/repair place then they darn well should do what they say they are supposed to do, fix em when busted............
