    My farmboss sat under the bench for five years...got it out this spring and pulled it twice and went to work.

    Neither have ever had a part replaced

    My buddy's brand new Stihl was in his shed when his backyard flooded a few years back. Ended up underwater. He saved it but it was hydrolocked. We pulled the spark plug and air filter out and drained the fuel/chain oil out. Propped it up on a bucket so the water would drain out the spark plug hole. Cracked open a beer and relaxed. Dumped some 2 stroke oil down the plug hole, yanked on the cord a few times then stuck it up on the bucket again. Stuck the plug back in, fresh gas, fresh oil, put the dried filter back in and after a couple yanks on the cord it was back in action.
