The product, in the report: grass trimmer that is a four cylinder gas
I ordered a refurbished grass trimmer, manufactor by MTDR and sold by The Outdoor Store. P.O. Box 600 Brown’s Summit, NC 27214 The weeder shoots out oil out of the airfilter compartment. Thus creating a bio-hazard and possible fire.
