I purchased the tiller last spring. It was a new unit. Since then I have only used it twice. The problem is that the engine surges in revs up and down all the time. It doesn't matter what choke position it is in either.
The first timer he dealer said that it needed to be broken in and that it will go away. I only used it for about 3 hours on a 40x40 already tilled piece of property. I thought, ok it will wear in. Come fall.. and it did it again. The dealer took it back and said that they found a pinched fuel line and replaced it. Brought it back, and I tested it and it did it again. They told me that they contacted Honda and Honda told them this is the way this engine is designed to be. It will always surge.
I called Husqvana service number but because it has a Honda engine they told me I would have to contact Honda.
I don't believe this is right. It should not be surging in my opinion. It also lacks power. I have no mechanical knowledge about tillers either so that doesn't help my position at all with the dealer.
If anyone has this tiller can they tell me wether or not the engine surges not.
Thanks for your time
