    Td5 problem

    if its any help I had a very similar problem last week, did the fuel filter, usual suspects etc. Turned out to the be the lift pump
  2. Heard about this a few weeks ago, supposed to be out in august. I hope its not as heavy as this these stats suggest, the new husky looks more appealing so far...
  3. if you're looking for something that could handle a bit more weight why not buy this?!? CITROEN 2 CV6 Pickup with galvanised tipper body on eBay (end time 25-Jan-11 18:36:28 GMT)
  4. I bought one last year and hate it, the fuel spout is always jamming open when use it so get petrol everywhere and the oil spout always cross threads. I've got an old stihl combi can that is this shape and thats never put a foot wrong, if this was comparable quality I'd bin the husky and buy this!
  5. When that lot comes down the roof tiles will be coming down with it! Why anyone lets it get a hold on their house is beyond me!
  6. I've had a couple of similar answerphone messages from someone saying they get you into schools. I normally check with Who called me? Free reverse phone directory. before calling anyone back from an area code i don't know, saves alot of wasted time!
  7. I'd try the nfu again monday morning, they insured my discovery for half of my renewal price from directline, they're the only insurance company i've never heard anything bad about
  8. Most domain providers are similar in price so doesnt matter too much, you can buy a .co.uk domain for around £8 and its yours for 2 years, for hosting I use UK Joomla hosting, low cost and free PHP hosting with unlimited MySQL databases. I started with a free package and went to the limit so the package I use now is only £2 a month for 2gig allowance and never got near that but could bump that up to £5 a month for 20gigs!
  9. Yes it was a beast, took 3 days as was in a back garden so had to be rung up and carried out, was over two gardens and rotten!
  10. Part of the problem is people thinking they're tree surgeons. We priced a job last year for pollard a crack willow, we put around £1400 on it, the customer had got a price of £700 from as he put it 'a builder and his mate who had a chainsaw and could do the job' after pointing out he should dial the first two 9's if he let them up the tree we got the job.
  11. I looked into this a while ago and found this article about a new mobile terminal that barclays are developing that works with your phone, hopefully will be cheaper than hiring a terminal..
  12. I bought a echo top handled saw on good review and have to say its pretty good, lighter and more manouverable than the stihl, although slightly less power and around £200 cheaper! only problem was that the clip attatching it to the strop broke so it had a 30ft fall, but bounced and was unharmed!
  13. Doubt they'd pay out as it wasnt under lock and key. My cousin lost some gear the same way a few weeks back, someone heard him working, he left some gear in the back garden while working out the front and they came in through the neightbours hedge, really low to steal work tools -moral of the story? keep your tools in line of sight at all times
  14. I've just done a search for tree surgeons in your location in google and found your site on google local, which is great for geting to the front page for searches, i'd say that your front page on your site needs some description, you only have your address and phone number on there and the google bots won't link that to tree surgery!
