  1. Yes tried this also but it did not work. It is vey difficult to pull, nothing like the saw we tried the other day. Something is not right

     

    If you cant get it going and are about sat pm ,give me a shout and pop over and i will take a look. If that helps

  2. That usually just means they don't stop on the stop switch though doesn't it?

     

    OP, one thing I noticed, and I can't see anyone else has mentioned, you said "wouldn't start after 12 months no use", are you sure this isn't due to stale fuel?

     

    Are you trying to start it with the fuel that's been in it for 12 months, or fresh fuel? And same applies to the fuel you are putting directly into the cylinder, is this fresh fuel or what's been sat in a fuel can next to the saw for 12 months?

     

    One thing I do know is that 2 stoke equipment doesn't like being sat unused, like cars they develop all sorts of issues with lack of use.

     

    I favour the Americans' use of a splash of Seafoam in the fuel, either as a preventative measure or as part of the revival of a troubled, been stored, motor.

     

    No if it earths out you will lose the spark,common prob ,just above recoil at the front

  3. To be honest until I joined this forum I didn't consider it cheap, it's the average price around here and when we put the price up by more than £5 we loose a lot of sales for the next month.

     

    I think because we're in a rural area most of our customers always have the option of cutting their own for free and there's plenty of competition around.

     

    In the end we price what we need to cover costs not as much as we can get away with which I know I'd want as a customer. :)

     

    Same here ,so many at it,I'm lucky to get £90 a cube .think there's about 12 +sellers maybe more in less than a ten mile radius from me
