Looked new, however the flywheel is made of stacked laminations inclusive of the crankshaft key!!! The key had sheered off, which is a known weakness. I refused to buy another at $45-$60, knowing it is a weakness and likely to happen again. I machined a custom steel key to fit the crank and I custom broached the flywheel. Started first pull and is a powerful, nice light blower otherwise. My first choice for blowing duty around the yard.
