  1. Brilliant! Glad I could help! I think it's a bit of karma about 10 years ago I had a 125 and it used to cut out randomly but then would work fine and then cut out again right when you wanted to get the job finished led to me punching it several times. Timberwolf tried to help over the phone to diagnose it but couldn't find the problem took to a mechanic still no luck. It honestly went on for 6 months or more then a chap on here sent me a pm and said to check the fuel line as the originals could perish and create create an air lock of sorts. Sure enough out of sight it had perished and was leaking the smallest amount but that was enough. New fuel line and never had an issue gotta love this site.
  2. Just asked my mate he said it was running then cut out and wouldn't start after so definitely worth a check.
  3. Good point. I don't know. Thinking about it maybe it just wouldn't start, it was a few years ago now. Worth a check though I reckon.
  4. This happened on my mates 160 after a lot of head scratching timberwolf technicians diagnosed it straight away. It was a fuse behind the ignition bit fiddly to get to but they said it was quite a common problem although it hasn't happened on mine yet. Hope it's this as it's a nice simple fix. I imagine green plant have already ruled that out though?
  5. They'll be fine. Look more like Lime trees to me so will recover.
  6. Clements farm at brickenden. Very close to Hertford and free tip for logs and chip.
  7. As per title my 2012 Transit tipper was stolen Wednesday night at 10pm north herts area. Was sign written with Rabley Tree Care on it and a steering lock but obviously that counts for very little. Just thought I'd put it on here to give people a heads up the bastards are about! Van was parked on the road in a quiet cul-de-sac, 3 men seen on camera walking to it at 8pm but spooked by someone walking their dog then back at 10pm and away with it 2 minutes later. Don't expect to see it again so if anyone has a transit for sale let me know!

    Thanks. I did but annoyingly I cancelled that credit card last month so doubt they will help. Will find out though.

    Mate just rang me to tell me it's gone bust and their phone lines are down as well so doesn't look good. I'm still waiting for 2 hedge cutter combi attachments I ordered in March. They were part of a bigger order which I received in dribs and drabs over the last couple months.
  10. Saw it at the APF. Looks pretty much the same. Switched some parts colours around like they do with the orange and grey bits. Sorry didn't take a picture. Chap on the stand said they're being made in Japan rather than Sweden. Slightly more power apparently can't remember what the figures were.
  11. I should think it's having confidence in ones own ability to get the job done in time and make everyone money. I have done this. Only a knob wouldn't pay the rate set after proving themselves worthy. And if they don't you will never give them the privilege of learning from a master again!
  12. Repaired a 540xp oil tank with chemical metal, worked well. Just have to get it extremely clean first and should be fine.
  13. The rollers shouldn't rotate on tick over. Did you mean that? I had a similar issue where the stress system would kick in but took slightly too long for the rollers to continue feeding wood in and it was down to the sensor being the tiniest bit too far away from the flywheel. It is a very small gap between.
  14. The 2 wires that bypass the stress system aren't connected are they? They're by the ignition.
