ETEC 200 HO dry weight 524
DF140 dry weight 421

My "winterizing" takes as long as pouring Stabil in the last tank of the season.....its worked fine so far, since 03.

Of course the ETEC will absolutly smoke my little 140, but I get 5 mpg.....its all a trade off.

I don't have to pour oil in a reservoir, but I have to change my oil.

You won't be unhappy with a DF140 though, I love mine.
