ORIGINAL: Twin Star

I picked up a MTD/Ryobi engine in a box and Id like to put it together but some of the parts were missing.

Does any body have a good piston and rod assembly and reed and reed stop they could spare for a very reasonable price?

Like was said, check the repair shops. At todays labor rates, most cheap engines are not repaired, just thrown away. I went through about 50 such weed trimmers in a pile that the shop was ready to haul away. I passed on a bunch of Ryobi 31cc, but picked up three Ryobi 26cc four strokes. Check around, and good luck.

Regards, Richard
