Book recommendations for maintenance
billpierce replied to Paul in the woods's topic in Maintenance help
Never used one but one he these would prob do http:// https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=stihl+workshop+manual&safe=off&client=ms-android-samsung&prmd=sivn&source=lnms&tbm=shop&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjTy4KXuKTXAhUSoKQKHYl4BiwQ_AUIEigB&biw=360&bih=560 -
http:// He has some other good vids. If you cannot bare a vac test then you could stick a decent meteor piston in, clean your cylinder adjust yer carb( if go 1.25 turns out to be safe) and tune up (many guides available) see how it performs. Airleaks usually are indicates by irractic idle and keep an eye on spark plug colour......def best to do a vac pressure test to eliminate this possible fault though or you could be back to square 1. Good luck
-
How has it failed? Is the piston scored? Or just low compression? Ideally you would vac/pressure test it ( Google it, I use a mityvac) and this will tell you if you have a air leak in or around crank case.
-
If it's too long can you just tie a few knots in it?
-
How did you kill the saw? What happened? Is it oem piston and cylinder?
-
Id just get someone with a tipper and chipper in when required and get a pickup /van and trailer for now. You can get a lot brash and logs on the right trailer if needed and will give you time to work out what you want.

Yeah me too.. .really appreciated

Aye Milner list a light duty and general duty springs for a mitzy
-
I would say they are well worn and will not take weight well. If the same as a hilux you can get a hd set and a soft set. Hd ones take weight better but are a rougher ride. Set of us springs was much cheaper than custom made ones around 100quid and happily took a tonne. The advice I got from a leaf spring company was unless you plan to regularly overload the truck don't bother as ride is effected a lot and pretty expensive.

Excellent!

Where is the poll? I'm on the app

Stihl workshop manual? A bit like this http:// https://www.scribd.com/mobile/document/329420854/STIHL-021-023-025-Workshop-Manual

Have a 440 what wants a bigger bar. Currently on an 18 which cuts well but basically want bigger for dismantles. 24 or 25 seems a bit over kill and clumsy and 20 seems not much bigger than 18. Thoughts?
-
I think it means lengths rather Than unsplit discs. I would assume that it would be liftable lengths of timber no longer than 1m to 1.5m if someone asked me to cut a tree into cordwood.
-
Thanks. Really appreciate that. All sorted now though. Will get In touch when it breaks again.

How long will I be dragging brush before getting to climb?
billpierce replied to Shooter's topic in Climbers talk
Get yourself out climbing at weekends so when you next get asked to climb your fast and prepared.
