  1. No same here . I have got used to it over the years and it kinda seems normal now .
  2. I have a tinnitus that I only notice when all the ambient noise is quiet . ( LIKE TRYING TO SLEEP ) its just a hiss . If I consciously stop and think about it I can hear it anytime but usually just when all else is quiet .
  3. I wonder what color the inside of an earwig is ....why can't I sleep ...
  4. Can't see inside the muffler but if it is just aluminum transfer you can clean that off with brick acid or similar . then a light hone and an OEM piston if you can get one or a decent AM one like a metier . Stick with the OEM cylinder rather than a Chinesium one .
  5. Like the sound of that but have zero knowledge of it . Tell me more ...
  6. That intake boot might be split because of that .

    Overloaded

    Someone has splashed orange paint on the digger , bastards !
  8. Can't even mill it now its in short chunks so fire wood only .
  9. Buzzards and Kites are like confetti round here . Also what seems to me to be an increase in Ravens around the higher parts .
  10. Could be split fuel line or intake boot that stretches slightly when the saw is moved on its AV .

    Jokes???

    The best mug is the one with a handle each side ( ears ) 😄
  12. So , for my birthday back in January I was given an "Everyman Racing " driving experience . I got to choose from Ferrari . Lambo , Aston , Audi R8 etc etc . I have chosen the Mercedes AMG . Just booked it for this coming Thursday . Its at Goodwood circuit which I know quite well having manages a 1min 28 second lap ( about 20 years ago ) on my Honda fireblade . It has been resurfaced since then but I do know were the track goes . Slightly different lines for a car than a bike I realize but am looking forward to it . Anyone else done this or similar ?
  13. Apparently a male blood donor ( who is a GP ) was turned away from a donor clinic as he refused to confirm if he was pregnant or not . This is NHS Scotland . FFS !
  14. Depends on age and species . It does go off like concrete if left too long before splitting and if its got that helical grain that some have its a machiene job only . Burnt quite a bit over the years and it is great fire wood , in a stove that is , as it pops and spits like a goodun .
  15. Yea , I godda feeling it was already assembled like you say .
  16. There was someone on here a while back that ported a " Farmertec " saw . It was all sorta electric blue color and badged as Farmertec . I think it was a copy of a 372XP . Apparently it ran well .
  17. It may well be more than 60psi .If you are not using the correct compression tester for a single cylinder 2t engine it will read low . just a point .
  18. I thought the same about the piston . OEM are usually a matt finish . ( on Husqvarna anyway )
