Get in with a small skip company mate.....dont tip at the big boys yard cause to them your just another cash card!!! I find the more you tip at places the price comes down but never be an arse are banter with the price as you want there services NOT the other way round!!! Whatever happens get rid of your waste legally and responsably mate that way you wont get any trouble off the council or police!! Good luck.......

You came to mine a while back with a bar for my stihl 041.... Alec out of interest what did you pay on the siezed saw?? And how much did it cost to fix it?? Thanks for all your help everyone......
-

:laugh1: Yeah id be intersted in that mate how much you asking??? Strange that happend to your 230 aswell wonder if it was a common fault in that model?? Does anyone know if a starter from a ms460 will fit this saw?? As found one online but dont wanna buy it if its useless...... from what i can see on google it does but would like conformation from some of you helpful guys..... :thumbup:
-
Thankyou for that mate i think ill get a pro to check it out and go from there lol but ljke you say would be nice to have a project over the winter and to get a good saw out of it for couple of hundred quid
-
Hi mate its not siezed up!! Thats why im gonna get it looked at lol.....
-
Good news is the 023c is now an up and running rat smoker.... anyone needing any rats clearing up round in the midlands let me no we use terriers and no poison left and do it for next to nothing no matter how big a job Out of interest does anyone no why its all burnt where the clutch was?? I think this one would be impossible to use as a saw again???
-
What would cause it to score so bad?? And how come it never siezed??
-
Aint got a clue if these pics will work lol but stripped it down and piston is scored pretty bad but looking them up on ebay and there available for around £60 so ill look into getting it fixed!! How much would this cost?? And those interested in buying it ill keep you posted.....
-
Im going to check the piston out now ill try and post some pics of it so anyone who knows more than me can have a look lol
-
Hi mate im afraid i searched high and low for them but to no avail lol 150!!! Never thought it would be worth even half that lol but tbh i like the feel of it and would love to get it running!! It had a half tank of fuel (now gone!!) And is only 2002 model so i suspect it could be reformed to its former glory in the right hands??

Cleared a few small trees and bushes for a friend of a friend last week who has just moved to an old house thats been left untouched for a year or so. Anyway was talking to her when saws came up and she said there was two old ones in the shed that i could have if the were any use!! So i nipped down for a look expecting to pieces of shite lol and two my suprise one was a stihl 023c and the other a ms440 Anyway on closer inspection the 023c has no chainbrake or clutch but fired up after a few pulls so is going to be converted into a rat smoker!!! The 440 has no starter or clutch cover tho but the engine isnt seized so thinking it might be worth trying to get it started?? What do you lads on here think?? Does anyone have an old starter assembly for it to see if it a runner?? What signs should i look for now to see if its fix or skip?? Many thanks in advance, stewie......

We?re stumped: Why did someone cut 80ft tree down and take it away from our garden? (From Bournemouth Echo) no one heard nothing and it had a TPO on it......... sounds dodgy to me......impossible no one would notice an 80ft tree being felled and removed...................im not falling for that old chestnut.........
-
cheers guys!!!!
