I've one that stopped the other day after being presented with a hedge to trim & hasn't run since. Checked the obvious stuff like spark, fuel & compression so can only assume it's become possessed, and needs to be dis-possessed. I nearly left the thing at the roadside this evening, but have a faint suspicion that there's only one tiny thing that needs changing, in order for it to run properly again. suggestions welcome... Some of this stuff has an emergency stop that can get knocked sometimes. (think of like a chain brake on kickback with a chainsaw). Usually it's just for the cutting bits - but some weirder ones kill the engine as well. 7DMkII | 7D | 450D | Canon 18-55 IS | Canon 55-250 | Canon 100-400L MkII | Canon 100-400L | Canon 24-105L | Canon 50mm 1.8 | Canon 1.4x TC II | Tokina 11-16
