OK, finally got permission from the wife to buy a new gas trimmer. I am
looking at the Troy Built models and was wondering what the difference is
between the 4 cycle and 2 cycle types other than the gas/oil mixture
factor.
Is there any significant increase in power between the two types? Which
one
is better power wise, the 2cycle has a 31cc engine and the 4cycle has a
26cc
engine. Is there any advantage of one over the other?
Thanks for the input. I really just want to get the best item for the
money.

In this instance the 2cycle will deliver more power and be considerably
lighter. Downside they have to be 'loved' to start readily!!
