Hi,
I have a friend that runs a Lawn repair business and every now and then I get an orphan piece of machinery. He gave me a ECHO HC-150 as I need a trimmer and would rather rebuild one than just go out and buy it. This one has a scored cylinder and piston. Also a hole in the crankcase. I have no history on this unit. I sort of understand the scored part from using fuel with no oil in it but not the hole in the crankcase???
I want to rebuild this as all parts are available but was hoping to salvage the cylinder and piston. Now that I look at it though it does not look good? Here are some pics!
