  1. Some times they appear to have a good spark and will even spark under compression until it gets warm and then they fail . Can you borrow a known good one from any one ? Just piped me to it Bill !

    Pickup

    Sounds pretty damning. What year / model was it? D22? I have a D22 . The engine has never blown up ( or let me down at all ) Regularly towed a Jensen A 540 , pulled trees over , pulled a fully laden Canter with wet chip and the chipper on the back , out of a muddy field . I change the oil and filter every 6K and that's it . Consumables have been tiers , and oil really . Its a bit beat up body wise but hey ! ?
  3. Never know . Might get someone with both ! ? Now youre cookin'
  4. You say you have replaced the tank vent , but , it does sound like its pulling a vacuum . Is there any way you can remove the tank vent , half fill it and run it upright for a while just cross cutting and see if that cures it ?
  5. A badger ! fuck no ! !!!!!!! . The point is its the stalking , keeping out of the wind so it can't smell you . Not making a noise , not putting up any birds , or other ground game just to get you into a position to take a clean shot . The actual squeeze of the trigger . Once you have sent it, its all over .
  6. Ok . Its just when you said " fake stove " and no chimney you were referring to the one in the post . Sorry mate , I am old ! ?
  7. Not sure but isn't in just an inset stove ? burns logs like any other . Dosn't radiate as much heat as a free standing stove but does the radiators as well so that's not really a problem . Or has this gone right over my head again Steve ? ?
  8. I have yet to see any animal pick up a weapon and fight back no mater what anyone hunts it with . There is loads of stalking around here with Fallow Roe Munties etc etc . Most taken with a .308 . To be honest we are over run with bambie around here but a sheep ? seriously ?
  9. Sweep mine every year my self . House was built with a fire place and chimney . It is what it is . The insurance company have never asked one way or the other .
  10. My daughter won't eat red or white meat . Strangely she eats eggs and fish so gets her protein from them plus the high protein you get from soya .
  11. If they've come from a beach then it'll probably be the embedded sand grains doing the blunting as much as the wood. This is true .
  12. Kinell ! Would never have got that !?
  13. Clocking in machinates have been in operation successfully in factories since , since err " The Peeky Blinders " ! ...
  14. Is there any situation whereby gravity does not play a part ? That Issac Newton has a lot to answer for !
  15. Some are so knarely they just blunt chains on the spot .
  16. I still recon you would be better just blowing them up and raking into bags , compost , or bonfire or whatever .
  17. The wood they make the pilings that form the groins ( break waters ) on the beaches . Can't remember what it is though . Possibly " Green Heart " ?
