TECHNICAL HELP

We receive many telephone calls and e-mail's every day asking for technical information or help. In many cases, much of the information is available on our website and is much easier to understand with pictures and text rather than us trying to describe things over the telephone.

PLEASE NOTE: We are very sorry but we can no longer perform "Technical Consultation" as to "How To" for free. Don't take this wrong, we will gladly answer your questions but if you wish to spend 20 or 30 minutes on the phone to learn on how to fix something to save $5.00 on an old engine bought off ebay or got for free a buddy's widow, we will have to impose a charge.

Frequently Asked Questions... Here you can find answers to many common questions. We will gladly answer question not answered here.

Owner's guides... Most owners guides for all the engines we produce are listed here in .htm and .pdf formats

Parts lists... and many "exploded views" of our engines are available. These are particularly helpful in taking apart and reassembling your engine.

Our website is updated regularly manuals, drawings, new information, and updated parts lists to make certain that you have current documentation. In fact if you call many time we will look to our website to answer your questions.

If you have a question that isn't answered by our website, you may do one of the following:

  • Post a question or look for an answer in our technical support forum After you link, scroll down to MECOA Brands Tech Forums. THIS IS THE BEST OPTION if you cannot find your answer on our website.
  • Email US... (If you do e-mail, you will receive an answer but RARELY IMMEDIATELY. We receive a significant amount of e-mail that slows everything down for everyone.

  • Call our technical support line. This may be on a call back basis. Free technical support is available to customers who have purchased from us within the past year otherwise a nominal charge may apply.
