Fairbanks Auger Repair?
« on: Nov 06, 2005, 09:03 PM »
Any of you guys know of another repair shop other than Rod's Saw Shop?  I have a temperamental Strikemaster that needs a good overhaul.  Thanks! 8)

Thanks for the IM again FarmerGrant! 8)
I think it's within the carb.  It's starved for gas and the spring retractor from the throttle is worn out.  I could probably dink with it, but fear the worse.  I'm almost considering a new auger, seeing both of my units are getting old.  My Jiffy won't give me a single problem even at -30, but that Strikemaster will act up every time!  Usually after the first couple holes have been drilled, the dang thing get's tempermental. :-\
