  1. If you got a 2011 one , as I have , you should be able get an updated carb , an updated starter pull , an updated coil . Mine performs faultlessly . You are right about the decomp popping out under compression only . Can't really help that . Mine on hot start needs ONE pump of primer only .
  2. Hey don't be sorry .... we cool ?
  3. Well I would need it way bigger cos I have a limitless supply of fire wood due to my occupation so maybe it was alittle rash of me to suggest that . Ifg you are selling to "builders bag" people then yep , looks good . Roof needs to be seal;ed though .
  4. Yea but the French did not make it . We did didn't we ? ... Good moaning
  5. Needs to be bigger , much bigger really ....
  6. <p>Ok Steve no worries bud . A.</p>

  7. Go for it bud ! wanna know what happens !
  8. Any one felling this week for comic relief ..... ?
  9. Don't sugar coat it ! give it to em strait !!!
  10. <p>Hi Steve . You ok mate ? How is your bench ??? !!!</p>

  11. So you can burn them in the store silly ! saves you bringing them in Doh !
  12. Yep . Agreed . Awful thing to happen . Occasionally I go through that scenario in my head .. Keep sharp you lot . Don't want to hear about it .
  13. Hard to tell from pics,but is the roof sealed ? If not it should be . Sorry if it is . The only other thing would be different sizes , preferably bigger ?
  14. Hooning down with cold rain here Jon . Not very nice mate . You all 560ed up now ?
  15. Seriously though . A 560XP works best on a 15" - 18" bar and a 372 will run a 20" - 24" . Thats what I would recommend for those bar sizes as I have them .
  16. You should have had a basket of high tensile sea water with that to hold it together . The QC in the packing department is crap . Take it back ......
  17. Yep that's what I did , as I said above , used a Lister Hot air welder with remote blower . Cut strips of filler rod from another old tank . Worked a treat .
  18. I put a meat pie on the exhaust manifold on the way to work.......
  19. If you can get hold of a hot air gun with a small nozzle you can have some success with that . Not always pretty but works . Even better if you have an old gash tank you can cut some strips off for welding rod .....Done it myself once .
  20. Mmmm . Contemporary wood or pseudo wood maybe ???

    Garlic?

    Any wild garlic growing near by ?? May be some near the stink pie ? Should not be getting past the water trap/ U bend but don't know what else it could be !
  22. There is a trend here don't you think ? Soooo when you get your 550 or 560 Take out the spark arrestor screen ( and leave it out ) set the auto tune as per the book. Remember the ignition is always in the ON position . The de comp valve pops out just from compression even if it does not fire so PUSH IT IN every time you pull the chord ! Hot start ONE pump of primer ( de comp in ) and pull . Remember the red lever is Choke , half throttle and resets to ON all the time . Don't flood it .... and and go cut wood . Enjoy .
