Got it running now. Runs great on idle and when throttle is applied. I cleaned a breather pipe and this some how sorted it out. As for oem parts, the piston, cylinder and coil are genuine. The crank and carburettor are after market. An original crank is £200. Hopefully it runs now. May put the original carburettor on but get it pressure tested as previously mentioned.

Good Morning Everyone.

We have been battling the heat for months now, with hardly any rain, currently watering to just keep things alive. The okra have dense foliage so cast deep shadow on the soil at root level, seems to help them deal with the heat.

"feckin' classic"

I was at a party last night, just at the bar waiting to be served and a woman came over and introduced herself. 'Hello, I'm Carmen'. 'Nice to meet you, Carmen that's a beautiful name, is it a family name?' 'No, I gave it to myself from my favourite things in life, cars and men, what's your name?' She asked I thought a while and answered 'B.J.Titsnfishing'

Greetings -- I have a long (150') and rather high (10-12'), and rather wide (8-10') hedge on one side of my property. Trimming it is not an easy job. Part of the problem is the ground. One one side of the hedge, the ground is level, and firm. Fine - straightforward. But...on the other side of the hedge, the ground either (i) slopes down towards the hedge, or (ii) is 12-18" higher than the ground that the hedge is rooted in. See attached. I'm seriously considering the purchase of a good 'tripod' (arbor) ladder, with an adjustable extendable leg (specifically, a Hasegawa ladder -- local dealer). What I can't suss out is how to use said ladder for either scenario (i) or (ii). About the best I can come up with is to try to build up a block of some sort (say, cinder blocks) under the hedge, and then put the leg of the ladder on it - with the top of the cinder block being so many inches above the ground. Any other options spring to mind? Cheers....

Probably, I found my saws required little maintenance, very seldom removed a spark plug and just generally cleaned around the clutch sprocket and cover, shot of grease in clutch bearing, ( bearing did not get much use as tickover slow enough to stall after 30 seconds on idle) plus made sure cooling fins were clear. Daily maintenance was air cleaner, which I did with petroil despite the manual saying not to. Sharpening was light and two or three times a day unless on sandy soil or having hit something, chain tension at the same time. Never greased the tips after I was about 30. A normal day would burn through seven tanks of fuel a day. I never needed a warranty claim on my, or the helpers', saws. We used 60cc Husky saws almost exclusively after 87 and I tended to buy a new one once a year and hand my old one down to a helper. I still use one of them ( I have three dating from 92 to 97)t hough I have an original 346 as my goto saw because it is lighter and I only cut logs.

Oldie, but a goldie.

Sorry.......misread your post as grooming. Apologies.

I've just decided to try some fermented chilli source to make use of the glut.

Chillies are doing fantastically this year.
