I had the troy built 4 cycle. The engine was great. The head very fragile.
I took it back. The 4 cycle Sears head looked better but it was not
balanced and very heavy. Maybe the Troy built with an after market head? I
am going to look at the Honda before I decide.
Good Luck!

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.
