half the fun of a big husky is the dang, dang, dang noise from exhaust
-
horse chestnut any good for logs, got 2 huge trees worth, standing dead for 3 years +, seems a shame not to turn it into logs:thumbup:
-
thanks for all he comments guys, if he ever answers his phone i can arrange a meeting, i havent heard hide nor hair from him in a year and then he springs this on me,the grounds certainly havent deteriorated over the last year, as said before i only improve them, well see what he says when i ever manage to get hold of him
-
thanks mate, ireally feel like burying him up to his neck and kicking him in the face every time i walk by
-
right, to cut a long story short, ive been looking after 2 sites (residential care homes) all of a sudden the md is dissapointed with the grounds,ive worked for him for 8 years and my standards have never slipped, in my opinion the grounds just get better and better every year, with me adding more flower beds etc, i think that he is trying to get me out for some reason,i charge 12 quid an hour and visit the sites no less than 50 times a year( the bigger of the 2 , twice a week in the growing season) just need to know where i stand as regards to if he can just out me for no reason other than that he might possibly get it done cheaper

think 20" might be pushing it a bit, but 18" would be ok, keep chain nice and sharp tho, and up the oil pump to nearly max
-
all sorted now thanks to bob, cheers
-

-

wouldn't touch stihl saws with a long one, but cant fault their blowers and hedge cutters, just prefer husq saws, one mans meat and all that
-

-

-
just got one myself to go with a pair of 268's, i just need that elusive 288xp now
-
very interesting, just been looking at husqvarna brazil site and they still produce the 272 and 288 xp , i suppose just for the brazilian market:thumbup1:
-
one of the first things i did was to take exhaust off and check spark arrest screen(hasnt got one) but havent checked the actual exhaust for coke, also ive noticed where the 2 carb screws fix into plastic housing to fix the carb,i cant tighten them up as the threads seem to be shot, im guessing i could be getting an air leak there, need to find a way to fill holes and re tap a thread some how, or i could set fire to it and go and buy a new strimmer lol
-
husq 232 strimmer starts ok , runs for a while (30 seconds) then dies, under load cant work out if its flooding or starved of fuel, new carb kit fitted and carb adjusted l1 h1 , just think ive got it running right then get the whab whab and then picks up to full throttle then the whab whab again and i havent been drinking lol, any ideas
-
it certainly has a cr£p inlet set up
-
as above, also idle a bit erratic, cable is free,and all seems ok in the carb??
-
oh yeah 15,500, real whizzers, 254 xp a close second i reckon
-
242 is rated at 15000 rpm!!
-
