  1. the flip side of a smaller chipper is you get more firewood to sell
  2. whats happened to your grinder this time
  3. the tips snap off the oregon ones quite easy theres a weak point on the back at the 3 notches
  4. he got the 4x4 remote jeep i wonder if we could rob the motors from that
  5. centre diff in wrong way minus a spacer and the shafts were in the wrong way sorted now disappointed it doesn't move under its own steam though
  6. he does pretty good for a 9 year old i think he's put a gear wrong in the steering as its locking up
  7. quick question is the lego unimog supposed to be powered along with the motor in it or does that just power the winches and the compressor our lads built his up and i don't want to pull it to bits to get a better look
  8. i have reported them umpteen times and they do fa about it
  9. leave it roadside and the log fairies will take it
  10. is there loads of end float on the crankshaft?
  11. its gonna be something oddball like a broken crank did it lock up with water in the bore
  12. without seeing the engine i am stumped sounds like you've done everything right
  13. your injection timing shouldn't have moved then i would suggest getting someone with bit more knowledge to look at the engine how did the bores look when you had the head off any scoring or lips at the top of the bores is the oil level correct as water goes into the drain holes when you take the head off and can shove the oil level up
  14. wouldn't think so, is this a pushrod engine with overhead valves
  15. look at the breather is there steam and fumes flying out of it usually with a fine spray of oil as well what i do on the cummins engines is fit a t piece in the engine breather and connect one side to a manometer the other gets a 303" restriction in it and you run it at full load full throttle and read what it says then compare it to spec. is the engine turbo charged as the return could be blocked with carbon. there are so many different things it could be.and yes unless its something you've missed i would have expected the problem to be there before you touched it .
  16. could you adjust the steering stops if it has any
  17. also the previous experiences i have had with 3 cyl perkins haven't been good they were absolute poop from what i can remember
  18. it sounds like its running on its own oil be very careful as it may overspeed is the engine oil diluted with fuel also when its running see how much back pressure the engine has if its been cooked the piston and liners could be bolloxed when you have it running remove the air intake and be ready to choke it with a rag or a glove
  19. yet another fake from ebay
  20. 365 definitely good saw as pointed out i would buy a new one from a dealer for an extra £20-30 with a minimum of a years warranty or is it 2 years with new huskys
  21. is that for somebody's boss once you've drowned his unimog
  22. if you want i have a kohler m16 available for a few beer tokens i just bought one of the launtop 16hp engines from west bank wholesale cost me £209 delivered to the door and i can't fault it how far are you from denny
  23. i probably never seen the thread but i would try to always avoid poison as it kills too much other stuff
