Thank you very much for the reply. I had heard about them being hard to start, but I have the Sullivan two hand starter that kicks over my 4.2 Sachs on magneto like I didn't have a spark plug in it. I've never had a problem starting my gas engines. I was interested in the smoothness of operation and the power generated by this twin. I personally prefer not having to deal with electronic ignition systems, an additional battery and switch, so the magneto operation is appealing to me.
If you get a chance, would you tach it and post the information here or e-mail me direct with the numbers?
Now, if anyone knows where I can get the best price on one, I'd appreciate the information.
Thanks again,
Bill
