$20 Husqvarna 435s! Can we save them? Absolute nightmare, no wonder previous owner gave up...

Normally i would consider Husqvarna to be top of the line when it comes to small engines. The 435 must be the exception. Holy hell was this thing a battle... Funky carburetor, sketchy coil, questionable flywheel, just about everything that could be adjusted was out of adjustment or needed replacement. That being said, she seems to be running good now! A little cleaning and some proper tuning after discovering what the last guy did and she's just about ready to make some firewood. Enjoy!
