ETON Technical
department has recently received an increase in calls regarding Rascals (IXL-40) with
no fire or will not start.
A high number of these calls have been traced back to a few simple problems.
1. Safety tether switch has been disengaged or connection wire unplugged.
2. Engine Stop switch has not been turn to the run position.
3. Fouled spark plugs, due to not switching to a 50:1 fuel/oil ratio as stated in Tech Bulletin #0017
and /or changing the plug type from Champion to NGK BPM7A.
We are asking our dealer and field sales force to have these item checked before placing a
service call to ETON America's Warranty / Tech Services line.
