I really like it. Cut down and cut up a huge mimosa with 4 truncks and 2 medium oaks. Easy start, light and very powerful. The main thing was geing able to kill it and restart with no hassle or worries. I have a trailer load now, ready for the compost.

Yea. I like how you can run it hard for about 20 minutes, shut it off to go and get a drink and come back about 5 minutes and it starts right back up on the first pull.

Guys off to the gym... I will pick up the MAF cleaner on my way home. I think I will do a detailed write up with pics on how to do it when I clean it. (Hopefully today when my dad comes home). Maybe it could be a Technical article?

Ok I will... Hopefully I can do the cleaning today. After the K&N my mpg def went down a bit. The MAF must have a tad of oil on it. There's no way it just dropped like that. I filled up on friday and usually get 17.3-17.4 and it was 16.

Could be or is it possible that you just started getting the gas with 10% ethanol?

That's what's odd. I fill up at the same pump at the same sunocco and all of a sudden that happened. On friday I filled up at Shell and the truck runs better in terms of shifting, but where the needle comes off the F is usually 65 or so miles. It seems to be happening more around 58 or so. Do you think it could be the cold that we have been having here? 30s-40s when I leave for class as opposed to the 50s and 60s and 70s that just ended being consistent
