Hi Dave, The parts books say the M8 & M20 use an "8D" battery. The September 04, 1945 ORD 8 provides battery dimensions as 21-1/8 x 11 x 10-9/16 which is...
At present there is a M8 being auctioned on ebay with a starting bid of $12.50 with no reserve......I think someone made an error in currency conversions. ...

As I stated previously. There would be less "resistance" if the original purchaser filed the warranty claim. If they check and find the smallestresidue of...
Chuck, They offer a lifetime warranty, so they should honor it. They had taken care of a warranty repair for me ~3 months ago (my piston was sticking in the...
