Good catch, Phil B. It can’t be an 18 if it’s a QD and it can’t be a QD if it’s an 18. So if the seller can’t even get THAT right, alarm bells should be going off……It could be an 18 with a QD tag on the bracket, though, if the bracket had needed to be replaced…..I would look at it; and if you like it, ask for at least a test tank demo run.
Not sure how you are at identifying power heads, as to whether it’s an 18 or a 10. There are lots of visual differences. Maybe someone will post some pictures. But the easiest one to describe with words is that 10s have a flywheel that looks at least two inches smaller in diameter than the recoil housing could encompass. 18s are going to have a flywheel that looks proportionate to the recoil.
Long live American manufacturing!
