Question
015 squeals while at idle and running.How do I stop it thanks

Answer
Hello Vlad:

A Squeal is Usually a Sign that the Recoil Starter or the Flywheel Starter Pawls Require Cleaning and Lubricating or the Fuel Mix is to Thin on Oil. Remove the Housing that has the Recoil Starter. Spray the Inside of the Housing (pulley and Cebter Bolt with Lubrication. Look at the Flywheel and Make Sure the Pawls are Moving Freely. If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem,  I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Thanks.

Good Luck
