No boh mate. Been fiddling with the 242s a bit recently too. 'Phoned E Buckland & Sons who seem to know more about Husqvarnas than Husqvarna! Put to rest my innability to understand why on earth I couldn't get a healthy 242 to its maximum rpm - can you guess?! Heated handle version - element stays on regardless of switch and drains 2-3500 rpm off the little whizzer. Eliminate the HH and away she goes; screaming like an eagle again... Might make some 242 vids! Also how to change the bar mount stud thru the oil tank oh yes!

Sweeeeet mate. We must catch up soon. My workload is finally getting down to more manageable levels.....

I went and looked at that timber in Noss again today mate. There is no other way to get it out than by man with tongs! Was thinking of getting you in for transportation! Going to put a gang in there for a day and have every bugger I can to wheel it home!...

 

Right, I'm off to bed; daft me still up; I'm still jaded from the Scotland trip!

 

Any bad dreams - I've found the perfect antidote! A nice fix of the music from the Danequip website! Aaaaagh! Not.

Been on the firewood this afty mate with a couple of the 242s; boy oh boy do they go! Total pocket rockets! Seemed very smooth too. 13" bar is best...
