Hey Shaunpaul. Any news?
-
Are you saying that all those may cause difficulty starting when warm? The last issue mine had was it would start, run up to a few revs below that required to activate the hydraulics then hunt.

Auction North of Rennes. If I sold it privately under French law I must guarantee it for two years though it is up to the buyer to prove I hid a known fault. Auctions are sold as seen, no come back.

It's locked in a tin shed 25kms away so it's bad vibes can't disturb my sleep patterns.

And this business of software updates. Well that ties you to regular visits to a dealer. Many chipper owners, me included like to do their own servicing. I also understand that there are very few Efi certified dealers generally and when I had my issues only 13 in the whole of France. Machines of all kinds equipped with Efi engines being sold by dealers not certified, trained and equipped to service them.

I still own it.

So, given your experience with these engines and observations of the trials and tribulations of Shaun and I. What do YOU think might be the cause of the starting issues? In my case, software updates didn't work and any number of diagnostic tests where inconclusive. I really would love to know. Stuart

It isn't only Briggs who have issues. Renault, Dacia, Nissan group have famously been taken to court by a group of owners over their TCi petrol engines. They have long been in denial of any issues and simply blamed the owners or ghosted them.

**** you Ashley...

Yeh yeh wiring loom yeh yeh... We had that one too. In fact the first fault the first Efi guy found was a rubbed through wire and he even charged me for it claiming not a warranty issue but a GM one. He refused to do a pressure test or anything recommended by GM. I call this 'dealer denial' A weird state of existence were they perpetuatly deliver poor service and in an effort to cover their incompetence, blame the customer for actually daring to use the machine. Though as ever, I truly hope this is the case for your chipper and that it is fixed and runs sweetly afterwards for ever more. Seems dealer denial isn't only confined to French dealers...

Flak as in a reduction posted on Arbtalk FB page...?

You ain't mad mush. The Luftwaffe produced a bomber with four engines, two engines in a single nacelle on each wing. Heinkel He 177 Greif - Wikipedia EN.M.WIKIPEDIA.ORG

Why are Horticultural professionals SO devalued?
Ty Korrigan replied to Trailoftears's topic in Landscaping
What are salaried climbers on in the UK? Average ability, not worthy of Instagram but can work within 500m of a childcare facility. -

In the UK, a close friend is a gardener for Southampton University. He's 2 years from retirement and has a team of six under him. Salary £32k -
I'm not joking but I am actually experiencing flashbacks of anger and frustration over my experience. So much so my wife asked me what is wrong with me today.

Especially business and pricing. -
I feel your pain so much I'm having to lie down as I'm experiencing flashbacks of anger and frustration. Mine had the same issues which no dealer could fix and in the end resulted in a new engine thanks to the intervention of Mark at BASCO (Briggs)in the UK. I suspect the ECU developed a fault. Why? Because there was literally nothing else electronic to replace.
-
Shaun, I was led a right royal merry dance by the two idiotic arrogant Efi mechanics that failed to fix a simple V twin Efi. I tell you now, go visit Ashley at GAGroundcare and leave the machine with him.
-
That is an excellent salary compared to France. Many climbers here are on €1800-€2400. Because the state taxes employer's almost 100% of the gross then tax the employee 25% as well.
-
Well, I sincerely hope that cured matters once and for all but I don't understand how 2 burned relays and a fuse contributed to difficult starting when warm. Surely, not starting at all with that level of failed parts.

Well, visiting the UK this week, we took a footpath across fields for a chippy tea and came across Malva sylvestris. However, Mrs Lee tells me the Malva eaten by her tribe is softer, less woody and no hairs on the stem. I believe this may be due to 'provinence' I've observed plant species subtly changing features whilst still being classified as the same species as I have travelled across Europe, NZ, OZ or the USA. Common hogweed was one notable ubiquitous roadside weed that caught my attention this way. A great variation in leaf profile observed as I travelled South from Brittany to Spain on velo. So I'll try buying the seeds in Morocco though they may not endure the Breton climate.

How did becoming VAT registered change your business?
Ty Korrigan replied to Excels1or's topic in General chat
This struggle, is it unique to the smaller self employed only? -
At last, a great opportunity for saying yes to the clients offer of an electric socket!

May I ask a prying question? What price are these? Thanks Stuart
-
Oh! I was just chatting with Mrs Lee about foraging in general. The purslane that popped up in my onions and got weeded out is a Berber favourite. I got given a hard stare for that but Mrs Lee hasn't exactly been proactive helping me manage the garden. They make an Autumn/Winter dish from it. Then she showed me Malva sylvestris and asked if we could grow that as it is again commonly foraged and grown in Morocco.
