I just picked up a Simplicity 8/14 chipper. It has an 8 horse Tecumseh engine on it. I am trying to figure out how old it is. When did Simplicity stop using Tecumseh? The DOM on the motor is 1291 D. Based on what I saw on the Tecumseh site it could be from any year that ends in 1. 2001, 1991 1981? The guy I bought it from said it was only a few years old (wasnt really sure since he was the second owner) so I would guess 2001. Any ideas?

I took a few branches to test it out and it seems more powerful than it looks like it would be. Does anybody have experience with this chipper?

Is there a little smiley face icon for the sound of crickets chirpping?:D

I've used it about 5 hours so far and I have to say it is exceeding expectations. It has handled everything I have thrown at it with ease.
