    Hip-O good to hear this is going to work out, sometimes we go the long way to get home! I have never been a big fan of Harbor Freight, their tools are not going to get you far. Sometimes you need to do with what you have available or what is easiest for that moment.



    Recently Harbor Freight opened a new store close to my house (1/2 mile) so I have been using them more for conveniece and mostly buying consumables. I did buy two of their Preditor engine's to replace blown Honda engines on commercial "Billy Goat" parking lot blowers. I have since rebuilt the Honda's and when those HF engines go out the Honda engines are ready to go. So for the price the Harbor Freight engines was the right temporary replacement.

    Harbor Freight for the most part sells tools that have a "Perceived Value", a brand name like a Honda engine has a "Proven and Confirmed" value.
