Way to much..Confused
Air cooled engines are great on Motorcycle's where the air can cool it.. LOL
That TM is air cooled but it will be sitting in a HOT trailer or Van and
thats probably why he had to rebuild it so soon..Dead
 
Look for liquid-cooled they last longer..Wink
 
Have you ever seen the Legend se? Confused It's somewhat of a small TM..Shocked
 
But..... Better than any portable out there... CoolCoolCoolCoolCoolCool

It is a #4 blower isn't it????
 
isn't that small,,,,,,,,,,,,I had a Legend XL and it worked great with one wand.
 
but I always wondered if it wasn't the small waste tank that made it perform well

Servicemaster runs them where i am at and its short
and tight. Wink Bad design for air flow..Angry You need more open
room when running air-cooled. Air-Cooled good for
Motorcycles but not TM's..LOL Thats why they have to
be rebuilt sooner..Ouch

I have to disagree,,,there are plenty of Legends with thousands of hours out there and air cooled engines have been used on Tm's for decades.
 
the Blazers are even smaller and I've heard nothing about good things about them,,,I did alot of reasearch on Prochems and spoke with dozens of owners before purchasing one
 
 
Maintenance is the biggest thing IMO
 
I know that alot of guys run them with the covers off though

Many air cooled TM'ers will disagree with my post.LOL

Think about it for a minute.. AIR-COOLED!Dead Best for Motorcycles..Big smile

Where is the air coming from to cool it? Its sitting in

a very hot van and getting hotter by the minute as

you clean.. Run a fan inside is a good idea..Approve Thats

what i do even though mine is liquid-cooled.Wink

And what i mean by bad design is everything is
cramped so tight to even lessen the air to cool it.Angry
 
Heat destroys engines and you will need a rebuild, replace
parts or another TM sooner..Dead
