    I bought a used one. They did the recall no bother didn't even ask. Bit of a fanny on but got sorted eventually. Tbh the part they changed seemed totally fine before anyway. But the new price from radmore isn't that much dearer is it?
  2. billpierce
    Pleased you at least have recovered this!
  3. billpierce
    Did you blow the extra 25quid?

    The 79cc is the one Jonathan . Same weight more punch. Like a 440 vs 460
  5. billpierce
    Also double check it's the correct gauge chain for bar

    It's what turps is made from, which is pretty damn antiseptic I'd say. I'd say you were not imagining it. Also love the smell. More than I like "pine fresh" toilet cleaner like

    I'd get a complete carb kit with replacement needle give it a good clean and go from there

    Often the parcel force website is cheaper than the 3rd party ones by the time you have insured it fully etc. But its wierd certain weight are so much cheaper through parcel monkey and parcel 2go etc
  12. billpierce
    Parcel force via parcel 2go or parcel force website. Never had any bother with them. Unlike others

    Yes I have. Also northern arb know about. Chains not pre stretched so wouldnt fit even though same DL as chain that was previously fitted. To be fair I had a large 9pin sprocket on which didn't help
  14. billpierce
    Link? Interested but looks like a rummage is needed? What echo spares?
  15. billpierce
    What sprocket are you using? Gustharts sold a lad i mill for the wrong 3/8 sprocket for lo pro on 660, which caused premature chain wear
  16. billpierce
    Where are you based?
  17. billpierce
    Something 40 to 50cc will fi as has been suggested. Echo and makia/ Delmar are decent other brands as well as stihl/ husky. You want new or used?
  18. billpierce
    Where you import from and how much. Looks the tits

    Well blyth council say the Greeks didn't have beards....not really sure what they are on about but wanted them to be happy with it anyways. Every drawing I sent them had a huge beard in.....too many chefs I reckon. Only took 30mins to shave it off and make it look ok. Definitely reckon was better with bigger beard though. Also think preferred it unburnt tbh. Made a massive tenon in the elm stump and 2 of us lifted it upright once the tennon was slotted in place. Love chainsaw joinery

    Thanks!

    Installed today. Council demanded beard trim.

    "Ooh Great! No ones on the blower yet" Lols, we do all secretly feel this though, even just a little bit. And always resent it when it's not you

    Had exactly the same as you with one of these saws. Went on and on trying everything, sadly i never got to the bottom of it. The only saw that has ever beaten me! Spud is probably right. Check the flywheel and ignition coil combo is correct. Best of luck!

    Me and a pal thought this also. He got pulled in Scotland once and the coppers were having none of it. Prosecuted him for it, points fine court case etc. Doesnt mean they were right mind you . Any sense in just buying a blank trailer plate off Ebay and stamping 1800kg on it? Obvs unsure of legality of doing this but essentially it's just a label. Wonder what is required to down rate a trailer?

    Looks same as My ms361 . You can drill it easy and there is the wee casting for the nuts to fit in. If you so desire.
