    out of curiosity do you use your strop on your d' s or bridge as a secondary rope...? i use spiderjack on main line and 5m rope and prussic... hate prussic binding! thats why i went to spiderjack on main line. i have a hitch knocking about and wonder if its safe / you can make a rope out of it so to speak run the hc and 8mm friction cord... would either want 5 or 8m rope...hmmm

    How do you go about muffler modding? Read on here to measure exhaust port and make it no larger than 80% Does it mean measure exh port on cylinder or the port on the exhaust.... Might be best to get advice from the beginning Also how do you set the carb after... just a 1/4 turn on the H or do you have to adjust both? Have a few candidates... 064,044,024

    And do it PROPERLY!! I recently drained fuel out of my tractor, then filled with new fuel, as you'd expect (hind sight) empty tank, pour in fuel, stir all sh1t up in bottom of tank... into lift pump, block fuel filter and be a general pain in the arse.... All rectified when i removed tank, power washed out, cleaned fuel lines and lift pump and renewed fuel filter.... what a couple of manic days All before i take it on its first outing! long way!!!

    Its dearer than what people do round here lol It would be good at 50.00 if delivered locally... only thing with more people doing it is that "some" want to be cheaper to sell more so drive prices down... 50.00 isn't bad depending on bag size

    The ratchet handle lever on the block is so you can really tension/remove slack from your rigging line
