    Stihl oil

    I think it does, not so much on bigger saws, but the top handles 200/201 run crap on supermarket stuff.

    Stihl oil

    Sorry. I use non supermaket fuel and Stihl green oil(HP super IIRC). All my saws are non autotune so less fussy.

    Stihl oil

    approx £19 verses approx £7
  5. Variable as I lengthen and shorten depending on number of wraps/braids. I just buy 10m of cord at a time and make my own tying the ends with fishermans knots cut ends are taped and glued with superglue.
  6. Tis but a kiss.
  7. IIRC Hedra is the same as Blue tongue. I run blue tongue with a VT and hitchclimber and 8mm OP and depending on the weather wet or dry I change the number of wraps and braids to get a nice performance from it.
  8. Don' t buy his replacement oil pumps, A friend bought 2 from him and they both went pop and nearly blew engine. Fitted genuine and its been brilliant since
  9. So your near 6k is this yrs tax bill plus a payment in advance for next yrs tax bill. Your tax bill next yr will be reduced by the advance you have already paid its a hurdle you have to get past. I agree the the £3800 seems high.
  10. csa potentially bothering you
  11. The other side is cold surely because it is not energised all the time only when needed
  12. Was running blue tongue with spiderjack 2, worked well. Changed to drenaline and it slipped a lot but changing the worn out spiderjack body cured that, to be be fair it was starting to creep on blue tongue as well. Drenaline a bit harder to grip than the B/T but I wear gloves when I climb anyway so not a problem.
  13. Bob you not got a spare one lurking in a container somewhere.
  14. Measure size of pipe. Get hole cut that size in a 1ft square of steel, cut in half. Drill a few holes and fix with self tapper screws to underside of register plate a bit of sealer or rope and jobs done.
  15. So that will be at or just over max load then (depending on how close to 3t load you had on). Been well over many times lol
  16. And whats the unladen weight of the trailer?
  17. Edward a nice quiet exhaust bet that snarled a bit
  18. @Mark Bolam been working in your area?
  19. A big bank balance.
  20. Handy things hi lifts for jobs like that.
  21. Even sprayed the hi-lift to match
  22. Ps have never heard of or seen a slate fence before, looks beautiful. Keep heading North plenty in the Thurso area
  23. Spruce aphid, Its everywhere you look up here
