OK, finally got permission from the wife to buy a new gas trimmer. I am
looking at the Troy Built models and was wondering what the difference is
between the 4 cycle and 2 cycle types other than the gas/oil mixture
factor.
Is there any significant increase in power between the two types? Which
one
is better power wise, the 2cycle has a 31cc engine and the 4cycle has a
26cc
engine. Is there any advantage of one over the other?
Thanks for the input. I really just want to get the best item for the
money.
