  2. if it doesn't start after following spuds directions, you've goosed it! Make sure you don't miss the engine firing on choke! I've also had this problem of fuel igniting from testing the plug, and off cigarettes too... Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  3. Yup, stihl oiler on ht75 is crap, follow GTR's advice Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

  13. As somebody who works in ground care and arboriculture, I deal with a large amount of stihl equipment on a daily basis, both where I work and my own equipment, and require a mail order system for parts and PPE, whilst I buy the machines in person, it is not possible to purchase parts! As stihl do not make illustrated part lists available, I require online parts listings to obtain the items I need, it will make it impractical to use stihl products with no way of finding and obtaining the parts I need Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

  24. If you do report it I think the EA and LA are supposed to be notified, but if you're going to control it, about 2ml needs to be injected into the stem, I use a big needle and syringe, and inject it neat/undiluted Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  25. Miles, but about 3-400m from houses should be fine Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
