My old blower is a Husqvarna 125BV blower and sucker-grinder. After the ice storms most of the large trees we had are now replaced with little replacement trees. No more Bradford pear trees! My master Gardner wife has found the trees she wanted.
I bought the blower on April 28th 2012 so 9 years of service. It has no spark arrester than I can find, even looking in the manual. It has 425 CFM delivery. I only used the sucker grinder once, and hated that dust storm. Now I just mow and mulch and the leaves.
I think I am going to order the:

I will drain the fuel and bundle up the leaf bag and the sucking nozzle and put it my curb for next large trash day. The scavengers will grab it long before the trash folks so it will get recycled to a new home.
I suspect the ignition system which is a Phelon/CD system is dead. I might be able to get one for about 40 bucks and maybe get it to work. I am not interested in trying.
That will leave me with just my string trimmer as a 2 stroke gas powered unit. I believe it is older than the blower.
