  1. What is it you mean by the oil isn't running along the bar? Does the chain pick the oil up and fling it off if you hold the tip of he bar close to a piece of wood while on full throttle?
  2. I would be surprised then if there was supposed to be a filter or something there next to the exhaust. It looks as though something has melted. Ive had a look on a parts pdf and couldnt find anything. If it was me I would plug it and try it out, checking to make sure you dont get a vacuum in the oil tank. But, it could cause probs if it is supposed to be a breather.
  3. Have you removed the exhaust and thats what you can see?
  4. Bump. liking the tractor.

    Bad Santa

    On bravo +1. it is a funny film, watch it if you can. Dont let the kids though!
  6. You old ones really are having a bad time of it. Remember oldies, 'stay safe out there' And buy better boots. Oh, nice1 for not breaking your neck btw.
  7. I finshed mid week and managed to dodgy an emergency too.
  8. Yeah its go snow any everything:thumbup: Are they Santa's sleigh tracks?
  9. Come on boys and girls time to change the scene to something a bit more seasonal. If you havent got a good pic just try google images, its were I get all my good arb pics tha I pass off as my own:thumbup:, well, theres no decent ones on this site! Ohhhhhhhh, well it is the season to be merry and have a laugh. Have a good Christmas all.
  10. Just under 2 hours.
  11. Nasty stuff indeed! Ive had the odd bit whizz past when things havent gone according to plan, that vid makes you think what if it had connected! Fair play to the bloke not passing out tbh.
  12. You are going to be popular then. If its for business purposes then the council will charge you business rates if they find out. They might also decide that you cant do what you want to do with the land. Catch 22, ask them and it might be a no then you definitely cant go ahead on the quiet.
  13. Its a cracking drink,having one right now! Oh Penfold you can ge it in 660ml(ish) bottles if you hunt about.
  14. My deepest sympathies during your time of loss.
  15. Iirc the first husky top handle had a small nosed bar which was rubbish ascit kept throwing the chain, especially when re topping old connies:thumbdown:
  16. Thats the best line a boss could ever say, and you know they mean it 100%
  17. Oh dear God! Yes your right they should have saved up more money to go on a better flight as then they would be ok. And how dare anyone save up there hard earned cash to go and enjoy themselves and have the audacity to be upset when there are people dying of starvation in Africa! The selfish buggers:thumbdown: Besides Why do we think they are all going on holiday? Christmas is a busy time because lots of people fly back home for the Christmas holiday season to see loved ones etc. People like to moan, people love to moan about people moaning and people love even more to criticise moaning people moaning about others that moan. Also when did airports work the way we would like them too? Ie you can find out if there is a delay before you need to leave to get checked in? Plus they always give an accurate time about how long the delay is going to be so you can make plans. But yes everyone who goes out in the snow for anything less than a saving the world mission deserves to freeze to death and it's just tough they should have had the decency to go back in time and leave like real men and women did. Oh except for arb employees who should be getting to work at all costs no matter what or they face the sack or at the very least no pay.
  18. Yeah I bet they were loving it.
  19. That's a bit of a mean comment isn't it? Quite a lot of people take cheapo flights because that's all they can affiord, not because they are tight.
  20. They are paid quite a bit of money to take care of the transport system, they do deserve a rolocking when they do a poor job of it, as should anyone. They knew we were in for another bad winter and in some places it is ridiculous. I have been out and about in the last 3 days, motorways, a,b roads and haven't seen 1 gritter or snow plough. I am only upset because I haven't been snowed in and still have to go to school.
  21. Too right and so they should. Well in fact heating should cost them nothing as long as they have put their fair share of taxes into the system. Wouldnt it be cheaper to buy electric heaters than pay extortionate rates for oil when its running low?
  22. I like that idea. Would be something like that safety device for a cut off table saw I would imagine. I have a few for arb equipment(plus the odd other non arb stuff) but I doubt I will ever do anything about it.
  23. If you have the money buy the pro saw. A light saw with a good power to weight ratio would be 'safer' than a heavy under powered saw imo. ie buy the pro ones.
