    I have a 6.5 Honda sitting in the garage next to a Predator 6.5. Change a cover and swap mufflers and you would not know which was which. The Predator runs fine. 504 is right about the spark plugs.

    Update junk Whirlpool

    Maytag still makes a good product, however, they now have less expensive models also, stay away from them. In this case you get what you pay for. Talk to an independent appliance dealer about different brands, they will tell the true story and help you make a decision.
