Had a friend give me two engines, an Echo pb1000 (21 cc??)blower and a stihl fs-85 weed eater.. "he said neither one will run there junk"
15 min after I got home both run like a top, just spray clean the carb and adjust the needles and they start right up.
Now what to put them in>??????
I have read alot on here about the Echo's but what about the Stihl is it good to convert.

My Feedback: (4)
I have done many Echo's and they have great power and are easy to convert. The Echo is a 21.2cc and would be similar to the new G-20. I have used that engine in a Seagull Models 60 size Edge. Flew good but not a 3-D powerhouse. The Stihl is 25.4cc and would be a real nice engine to convert. I have a couple Stihls just no time to convert them.
