For who's interested, I finally got some time to strip the saw down and have a closer look at it. All the flexible fuel lines etc. were fine and on initial inspection so was all the wiring. It was only because I had dismantled the saw and the top handle assembly was hanging off the body did the problem show itself. The black wire coming into the handle had broken about an inch inside the sheath and the weight of the dangling handle pulled it out. Otherwise I'd have never spotted it. Luckily just enough wire left to solder the two halves together and it's running fine again. If the fix doesn't last I'll replace the loom but I surprised myself solving it, so I'm going to enjoy it while it lasts. Happy New Year!

Delicate. Lovely work mate.

Great looking truck!!! Dunno if this is of help/interest?

Frosty here, just really got up. Tom has a visa application in for the USA, if he gets it, I'll sell up at Shepshed and Caz and I will live together! My only new years resolution! What's yours? Lie, Caver, Gin.

Check the pipe size to the spool valve, 1/2" or larger and don't use quick connections or compact 90s as they restrict the flow. Plus check the case return pipe is as large as possible, had an old Leyland with a 1/2" return, bored the nut out and made it 3/4" made lowering the loader less like watching paint dry as open circuit means your dumping into the returning high pressure oil.

Tip on drive way no156 (next door to hairdressers)

So could by valve block for loader, seal going or plumbed up wrong (your tractor runs open centre if it plumb closed centre will make a difference) Would get someone to check flow rate at rear spool to rule out pump.

Morning all, Good frost here. Family walk trying not to slip into the canal, then maybe the village pub. Safer in that order I reckon.

Good morning Arbtalkers , looks bloody cold out 🥶

They go up quick enough.

Does it smell of burnt oil ? Could be getting by the rings or the valve guids ...

BIG frost this morning ! Happy Wednesday chaps 🙂

When I first wrote to the Forum regarding my smoky V twin 20hp I wanted to add a short video of the engine but lacked the necessary skill to load up a video. However my grown up children came to stay with me for Christmas and for them it's second nature so here's the video. Better late than never it may still provoke a eureka moment from somebody to tell me what was wrong. Still intending to strip down the engine in the New Year. Happy New Year to everyone on the forum. df0d9777-c5a1-4641-afde-9950611a42d1.MP4

Good Morning Last day in S London. Think i'll treat myself to a curry and naan for lunch. Go out with a bang. Day off and.....lets see. Catch up with you chaps next year.

Morning, 0 degrees. Got out to do a few hours work helping a mate out yesterday and doing the same today. The village is a sheet of ice after we had a -8 to zero and back to freezing on Boxing Day. Did it again the other night.
