Have you adjusted the carb settings yet, most carbs are set to 1 turn out on the H&L screws but try 1.5 turns and see if that helps. A carb kit may help but it may just be a blocked fuel filter, holed fuel line, blocked gauze strainer or just gunk in the carb. The 114 is an old saw, is the piston OK? Taking off the muffler and viewing the piston through the exhaust port will help. What is the compression like? 150psi + is best. Lots of things can cock up the idle but if the compression and piston looks OK, most issues are fuel system based.

sorry Stubby, you were closer before.

Heavy old stuff too, that fire pit design looks fantastic too.

and that may well be the case, the future is unwritten.

Husqvarna are bringing out their first fuel injected saw shortly, I have one on order, 564xpg. As light as a 50cc with the power of a 70cc, had a blast on one recently, a fantastic mid range snedding machine.

I hold the pair of them in equal contempt.

They're pretty solidly built Stubs. Had mine for a few years now and it's sound

aye right,, not like like that bastion of truth and common sense jeered by the people of Manchester today eh!

I watched all of that. He's a pure grifter. There is nothing sincere in his delivery.

I used one briefly and yes it zipped up almost like a ported saw but I thought it felt a bit flimsy for a bigish saw . Yours I take it is holding up ok ?

Yep. Really happy with it.

Turns out the terrorist was on a rape charge too, suprised the site rape expert missed that one, but then again 🤔

Do you have a 500i ?

I know .... Its Rob Wolf the game keeper on the shoot next to me . 🙂

A wealth of Knowledge, very interesting. I am near Ashdown Forest, of which there is a lot of heathland, it is interesting what grows and survives in those conditions. Seperately, I recently cleared a couple of old fields that were absolutely rammed with bramble, where I removed the bramble there is now a whole load of bracken shoots coming up, haven't had bracken in there for a long time. Will be interesting to see what else happens. Will probably keep it cleared as I don't need it to turn into woodland, there are over 40 acres on the same site and that all needs managing.

Evening, ive got a lovely old sachs 114 , starts first time sounds lovely ,chainsaw runs and cuts like a dream... however carb won't tick over i have to keep it running on the trigger, its not the end of the world, but I csnt seem to get an adjustment setting that changes it.been advised to try and source a replacement carb( unlikely? , was wondering is it worth trying a gasket kit etc? Any ideas?

There have been two fatal far-right terrorist attacks in the UK in recent years, versus how many ?? . Attacks June 2016: Thomas Mair murdered Labour MP Jo Cox in West Yorkshire. The far-right extremist shot and stabbed the MP, shouting "Britain First" during the attack. June 2017: Darren Osborne deliberately drove a van into a crowd of Muslim worshippers near Finsbury Park Mosque in North London, killing one man and injuring twelve others.

NBC in 2011, Trump said: "In my opinion I hear the Democrats are going to be blamed and the Republicans are going to be blamed. I actually think the President would be blamed. If there is a shutdown I think it would be a tremendously negative mark on the president of the United States. He's the one who has to get people together."

the green party have the right idea - get everyone so wasted they are incapable of stabbing anyone Green leader Zack Polanski backs legalisation of all drugs WWW.BBC.COM Zack Polanski speaks to BBC South East on the party's new approach ahead of the party's conference.

Unless of course the police are wrong and two people on an arb forum know better. How’s the answer to Mr Bolams question coming along “ Steven”.

wow - it's your lucky day - some guys have written a whole 50 page booklet 'weed control in Christmas tree plantations'. Merry Christmas https://cdn.forestresearch.gov.uk/2022/04/fcfb015.pdf

I'm using a Sequoia harness with 2 bridges and I want to fit a connection ring on each one. The bridge that came on the harness is a size 'M' (45cm), about 10 or 11mm thick so I just added another one the same to match it as it seemed fine when I climbed on it. Petzl connection rings come in size S (28mm internal diameter) or L (46mm internal diameter), but I can't find it stated anywhere which size ring would be best to use on those bridges. By my reckoning the small ring ought to be big enough to accomodate the thickness of the bridge itself plus the thickness of a karabiner with a few mm to spare, so is that the one to go for? Or am I missing other potential uses for which I'd need the extra internal diameter of the bigger ring(s)?

what's wrong with glyphosate around saplings and small trees if you use something to control drift?
