  1. Nice sesh round the fire last night. Rare no wind, no midges
  2. Cheers I'll ring Monday
  3. Filters are a few months old and clean. Yes throttle is down on the adjust screw. Honestly it chips well and works fine. The idle rpm is about 550. Could it be the rpm sensor is goosed?
  4. Cant find what the running rpm should be? Manual says speed is 2300rpm . When throttle is right down it makes about 1250rpm, throttle linkage appears to be fine and has full articulation both on the lever and on throttle on engine. The run button on the ECU does nothing, I know on some greenmech this will increase rpm, but don't know if this should work or is just there as it's a standard controller across models. Either way it chips fine and I would say you notice it chipping slowly compared to say a tw150 etc. Just checking its revving out correctly. It's the isuzu 3Lb1 3 pot non turbo
  5. Aye, took me quite a while to spot you, much bigger than it looks on first reckoning
  6. Possible been on before
  7. Wish it were a joke
  8. Have a pal with a chainsaw mill up that way, PM me if you want his contact details
  9. Am I right in thinking its 'chain guard' rather than brake handle? That did make me suspicious. Can you even get Chinese 090s? Or is it just an 070 with 090 top end ( is that even possible?)
  10. Lol. Carving all day with tipper is shan on the wrists. Probs the same of hedgelaying all day
  11. Ideal chipper saw/ coppice saw/carving saw
  12. I was pleasantly surprised recently to find a new OEM husky cylinder and piston kit for a 3120 only 150quid from dealer, so no complaints as long as they keep this up. Hope Stihl don't do what they did to the 084, limiting what spares are available
  13. I agree with you apart from the 361. It's a decent no faff tough 60cc saw, pick mine up over the 357 most times
  14. It would be the dream Jon. I'm on an old mk3 hilux, but one day I'll own a 80 series? Even if I have to chop the body off and make it a pickup myself. I was looking Into importing a 4x4 dyna recently. Surprisingly not that dear
  15. I'm not really interested in everyones personal experiences, I want the advice from someone who has 'researched' t shirts on the web really thoroughly
  16. Sheeeeeet. 3120 out of production also?
  17. Looks good. Looks like highly valuable walnut.
  18. Worth trying to hone it with some sand paper mate. Sometimes ally deposit can look alot like worn nikasil
  19. Pretty sure that 5 th hole is the impulse. If you blow down it, it should connect with the carb, either through that pipe or via a hole the carb boot. I have never seen a saw without an impulse like, designs vary but they are and essential part of the engine. It may be stihl changed the design. I.e later 044 have a direct impulse into carb via boot on later cylinders or something. I agree with earlier comments through, I think with no impulse your saw wouldnt be running for a while then stopping, it would be obvious from the start. Have a good look at the various exploded diagrams and you should be able to see what the craic is with impulse lines on different year 044s Good luck
  20. Must be why he knew to use an electric jigsaw. The amount of people that have claimed they used to be tree surgeons that i have worked for is uncanny.
  21. How much were they mate?
  22. Nooooooooo! Dont get rid of it you'll regret it forever!
  23. Is it moving 5 to 10mm at the tip of bar? If so dont worry about it. Tension the chain until the tip moves up then tighten the nuts and it should be about right
  24. I'd hands down get this over the husky or 181. Its decent like
