some months back we had a 200t go missing from a site.

looked everywhere but couldnt find it.

presumed it had been nicked and claimed for a new one on insurance....

loading stobarts yesterday and a strange steaming dangly lanyard appeared in loading shovel bucket.....

pulled it out and behold a steaming 200t that must of been in the chip pile since june!!

must of been tipped off in a hurry!!

well rusted up,pull cord and throttle all seized up, bar n chain had started to crumble apart!!!

 

 

stripped it,rebuilt starter mechanism and throttle,on/off switch.threw a new bar n chain on it.flushed tank 10 pulls and it came back to life!!!

what are the chances and what were the chances of it running!!!!

awsome turn up :001_cool:

Had a mate who liked a drink, one morning found his car had been stolen,

got a new one on the insurance, few weeks later drove near his house and saw his old car, realised he had parked it a few streets from his house whilst scuttered and forgot, he just ignored it, (after removing his effects)
