  3. I'm a real p - -s head , 1 MaCallan 18 yr old 2 Knockando 3 Tobermory , steer clear of Jura it goes down far to easy !
  4. Hi mate , Anytime I feel my back starting I go straight to my local chiropractor , she's fantastic ! Last year I trapped a nerve swinging the maul and she sorted it first time . Can't speak highly enough of her , been sorting me out for years . Get well soon .
  5. I use a Stihl km130 with the saw head and one of those carbon meter extensions , I know they get some bad press but I bought mine new and it's done a power of work with no problems . ( touch wood )
  6. Rangers
  7. Me too , swamp loggers is great , dunno if I fancy working with them though !
  8. Ii've got a Land Cruiser Amazon 80 series , they say it'll pull 3.5 ton , I pull a big ifor williams tipper heaped full of wet hardwood regularly and you would be pushed to know it was there , great machine !
  9. I don't fancy risking my ms on the end of it !
  10. I'd love one , but cannae afford it , Christmas skint me !!
  11. I agree with most of the guys welders gauntlets , I buy mine from engelbert strauss , best I've tried .
  12. I ache all over , getting old !! I'm pretty good at getting these wee splinters in my eye that fly in even with my visor down , the joys !
  13. Lucky you , I'm skint , tax man to pay !!
  14. Boy that works with me sometimes had the same problem and it was a split hose going to one of the valves , on the chassis near the front diff from memory , hope this helps .
  15. You can dump it at mine and I'll give you a backhander !
  16. I use Bashlin curved shank with long gaffs , leather straps . You can get them with velcro too . I find them excellent , think I paid £170 £190 ish Only ones I've used but not had any problems .
  17. Yip , I borrow my mates Kubota a fair bit , handy as hell and good for stumps too , saves price of a grinder hire , big investment though .
  18. I've got a viking and a Honda , for me Honda is better . Don't know much about Lawnflite .
  19. Did you keep a note of the echo valve part number ?
  20. Im near Perth , brutal up here today , I've stuff to cut when I can find it !!
  21. Looks mean for sure , i prefer the older stihls , better build quality in my humble opinion .
  22. I bought a Husky 61 in 1986 , only use it for fire wood and dirty stuff , still going strong and original , always run on xp oil . Muffler fell to bits about two years ago and when I renewed it the piston was like new .
  23. Sounds like the air flow meter if you recon its lag from the engine , or as the guys above say if you recon it's transmission ish . Good luck .
  24. I've got a 28" bar on my 395 most of the time and it's great , also got a 36"Sugihara bar but I must say I seldom use it . In my opinion 24" is a bit small for a 395 but it's up to you .
