If there’s logic in Stihl model numbers, I can’t tell what it is.
-
Further musing: The 441 is pointless when the 461 exists. Farmer saws like the 291 and 391 will feel dead if you're used to a good pro saw like the 261. The farmer/landscaper/prosumer 230 should by that logic be shit too but their power:weight ratio is particularly good.
-
A 361/362 isn't much more saw than a 261 but is a tolerable way to run a 20" bar if you have a short one on the 261. A 461/462 is a much more significant step up and ideal for 25" or 20".

My cooker runs on bottled propane, I tell you hwat. And I'm tight. Woodburner or the kelly kettle bowl for long boils.

The butter sounds excellent. I love butter and eat tonnes. A friend keeps complaining about the price but I’d say it’s cheap at double.
-
I appreciate and approve. What I don’t do though is have the freezer on very often. Nor would I boil stock on gas. I’m not made of money you know.

The biggest problem with running a long bar on a small saw is the legions of doomsayers who insist you might as well be running it on meths and used engine oil. Fuxking obviously it’s not optimal but if you’ve got a particular need, just crack on. Your bar oil should be on max already anyway. Treat it sympathetically, keep chain speed up and you’ll be amazed how little happens besides you cutting stuff up at an infinitesimally slower pace than a catalogue configuration.

Hadn't noticed any of that. I heard daytime TV celebrity and my mind shut off fairly instantly.

Ten points. Staggering waste. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuwaiti_oil_fires

I don't know why Steve applied a laughing smiley to this. You weren't joking and it isn't funny.

Ten points to whoever knows what the single artwork is.

Spotify link for the youth.

Here's the first one we've released. It started as being primarily about the environmental harm caused by war, expending resources to destroy resources to steal other peoples' resources but ended up including reference to the revolving door of the military-industrial complex and the general shitness of nation state conflict.

Quite. I can’t believe the “men” who have opinions about this shit.
-
Just something for the enterprising young man to consider. The British workforce is currently dominated by pointless office retards, mostly funnelled that way by schools.
-
It could well be worth ditching school. Weigh up the pros and cons.

I’m sure I’ve read spud on here saying he’d ported a blower.
-
I’d have done the same. That’s a stout tree. There are some monsters in Woking. My uncle has a couple of big beech about the same as that in his garden, backing onto the canal. No access except round corners, through the house/garage. That’s a logistical exercise when they need to come down.

Paraphrasing, you killjoy.

“Rig it there.” “I don’t think we’ve got the height.” “We do.” “Are you sure you don’t want me to go a bit further out for a bit more clearance over the fence?” “Yes I’m sure. I’m a mint climber myself.” Cut. Swing. Fence gets it. Awkward silence.

Who cares. Let him keep you on a studded lead and call you pipebitch, as long as he pays for it. He can be pleased by thinking he’s the brains. You can be pleased by taking his money and forgetting he exists by ten past four.

Aye. Filthy. Problem appears to have been fixed by the application of 70 psi to outside and inside of carb. Cheers, folks.

How do I test to see if it’s the problem? Good fuel supply getting to it. The mower runs for a minute or so and then dies. Leave it for a couple of minutes and try again and it runs for another minute. I suspect this fuel pump isn’t replenishing the carb bowl quickly enough.

Between the fuel and the carb on a Kawasaki v twin on a Viking mower.
