Bought new stihl chainsaw and backpack blower less than year ago from goodsell. Had my previous equipment for 10yrs and loved the stihl product line. The new equipment however is a problem, both pieces i have numerous problems starting and had to take back in for them to tune. So just last week i take back in chainsaw and blower which wont start. They call me back several days later and tell me the chainsaw is dead, bad fuel. I say what is wrong with the fuel and he tells me that with the new emissions the units are now more sensitive to old gas. I ask , how old is old gas and he says over 30days, I say are you nuts... Same thing with my blower but he said for $125 he can fix it as no motor damage but must use new fresh gas each and every time. They would not replace my new chain saw, less than year old but would sell me a new one. Now I go out to start my blower which i had brought home from their repair earlier in the week and damn thing will not start. So i am ready to run out to kirkland again to drop the blower off again. Last time i will deal with them and last time i will buy the stihl product line. Impossible to keep ""fresh"" gas around unless you are a prof yard man. not happy with these boys anymore, they have lost my trust and confidence.
