I work for an authorized Echo service center that has been working on Echo equipment and Mantis tillers for a very very long time. I have never heard of an Echo engine having a "lock up problem" unless it was run on straight gasoline. In fact, a large majority of the Echo engines that I have seen run on straight gasoline can be salvaged with some light cylinder honing and a set of rings.scrench said:remember the ole mantis tiller engines that had the lock up problems lol same engine -- i think they were echoe ?
