DEAR SIR WE ARE AGRICULTURAL EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURER.
NEED DETAILED TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS OF HONDA GX25 FURTHER NEED TO APPROVE OUR EQUIPMENT WITH GOVT OF INDIA TEST LAB.
You are requested to provide same as much as possible.
Regards
I have a tiller with the GX25. I cannot seem to get it started. I can’t figure if the choke should be in the up or down position. In the middle it will run for about 2 seconds.
by the time I get to the switch, it stops running. Please help me!
I had the same problem, motor is on a mantis tiller. Bought the service kit for it. Kit comprises of air filter, fuel filter, spark plug, oil, gaskets .
Try the fuel filter first
replace carb 17.99 on amazone had same problem fixed it runs like new
This is the first site I’ve found that all the specs together. Thanks Guys.
