  6. crikey that was close wife came back from yoga i forgot i had the cylinder head in the dishwasher
  7. is holly any use for turning or will i just turn it into firewood?
  8. done a bit of a search and managed to get a manual for free went to jem and they reckon i should be able to get parts and the engine is equipped with automatic compression release to aid starting hence the valve lifting twice every days a schoolday
  9. i stripped it down to have a look see and when i lifted the head i turned it over and the exhaust valve lifts twice per two strokes once a fraction when the inlet valve is open and then it opens fully on the next stroke i think this is why it backfires so i dug into it further and there is part of the governor hitting of the bottom of the exhaust lifter does any body have any info on these engines
  10. do u have big fingers or are they small chicken eggs
  11. i havent done anything as small as this but on most excavators you can take the final drive covers off and take out the sun gear in the middle and tow them out but remember and be ready to chuck some logs under the tracks incase it runs away at the top off any incline you can also use a porta power but you need to disconnect hoses and plumb it in on small stuff like this the brakes are usually fed by a shuttle valve in the feed hoses to lift the brakes
  12. is there a dealer for parts in scotland
  13. looking for some pointers about a kohler magnum 16 on a stump grinder.its backfiring really bad i think the valves are needing reground but it isnt an engine i am familiar with is there any service and parts manuals available for this there is also a bit of wear on the throttle spindle i read somewhere that the governors were poor on these engines .cheers to any advice
  14. i always carry big cable ties and 2 inch silver tape and some jubilee clips in the van its amazing what you can lash together with a bit of ingenuity
  15. got a long one saves the back make sure your aim is good i verynear put mines in my ankle when it skiffed of the side of a bit of beach:lol:
  16. iveco gearbox with a collapsed output shaft bearing and an idler for the belt on our camon chipper thats to get new bearings
  17. the one on ebay would need another reduction it would still be too fast and not enough torque i had a 3hp steam cleaner motor on mine and its stalled and blew fuses on a regular basis i would go for the 11hp motor if i was to build another
  18. well i took it back to the dealer told him what happened and he looked at me like i was talking poop as soon as i mentioned seized solid i think his mind was made up he says he will strip it today or tommorow and let me know, i hope its what i want to hear or next stop husqvarna in county durham as i am heading to hartlepool tommorow
  19. go on chip it it will be far easier to move split the trunk for firewood hey presto
  20. does anybody get offered blue ribands on their tea trays i think they are **** i have been put off for life by my gran its the only biscuit she would buy, there must have been a thousand in a pack horrible bloody things am got have recurring nightmares because of this thread who started this thread damn you:lol:
  21. i feckin hope so i will be sitting at the dealer at 8 in the morning
  22. i was thinking of the momentum the crank has that the rod would be bent i only removed a tiny bit off debris from the top of the piston and the crank was able to turn you can still feel the tightness at tdc i dont do tree work full time so although the saw is 6 weeks old it is literrally brand new thanks for the offer on fitting the barrel :thumbup:but i quite like doing stuff like that it makes a welcome change from repairing heavy plant:thumbdown:
  23. do u not need an o license for a mog?
  24. had a look on eblag there are quite a few is there much off a power advantage going from 56mm up to 58mm barrel spudulike have you heard anything like this before also do u reckon the rod or crank will be damaged by stopping dead at full bore i am not too sure i dont have much experience with 2 strokes i only really work on large diesels, if you stopped one of them like that you would be still picking up the bits yet
  25. does anybody know how much off an ass reaming a barrel and piston is and conrod and crank
