If you have stale fuel now, then you may already have problems which need fixing, either now or in the future.

 

The best bet initially is to drain it, the put fresh mix in and run the saw. This will flush out the stale fuel and the solvents present in fresh fuel may dissolve gum from the stale fuel.

 

This might just save the saw.

 

Then you could run it dry, but the trouble with that is that the rubber parts could dry out and crack.

 

Best, in my opinion to put Aspen in (after the fresh petrol) and run it through, then store it wet with the Aspen

Thanks a lot for the advice. Much appreciated.

I have stale fuel in my stilh. I won't be using it for a few months at least. Should I run it dry? I will probably use aspen in future. Thanks

Thanks for sharing. Beer will help heal the nose! Are face visors designed to stop a chainsaw? (That's not me being sarcastic) Did the saw actually stop?

Great design. Simple but very effective, especially the design of the junction between wall and floor. I'd have put a corrugated roof on. Thanks for sharing.

Knowing the way decc work I would guess that they would only want a commitment from you and would never check where you bought wood.

Thanks Steve. But no tractor. I basically have the rounds from a 80 footer (scots pine) that I don't fancy splitting by hand. By the looks of the £200 splitters they won't last long. It's not worth me buying anything more expensive as it's just for personal use. I'm in Teignmouth. Thanks

Good on you. I think most people would really appreciate a days garden sprucing up.

I'm looking for a small splitter to hire in South Devon. Do any local companies rent these? I would only need for the day. Thanks

Hello.

I am looking for a good couple of tipper loads of wood chippings for paths and a play area for my daughter. I'm in Teignmouth.

This may seem a stupid question but I'm not sure how much chip varies and whether I need a certain type like bark chip?? Any advice would be welcome.

Again I'm not sure if this is the sort of thing that is charged for or you're just pleased to get rid off!

Thanks John
