    Stihl 046

    I've just been cutting some wood with an 044 I put a new piston in. It's a bit big for a woodpile saw but it pulls like a train. Bit smaller than your 046 and I had to pay money for it and put a 20" War Tec bar and chain on it from eBay garden-hire-spares, it made me grin using it.
  2. What's caused that, is it rubbing or is something pulling on it and are spares easily available ? Good to find and fix a problem though. I had a moped with similar problem but it only used to stop when it rained. I just wrapped amalgamating tape round the manifold and it ran for years like that.
  3. I've got 33 gig of Seinfeld, all 9 series on my drive and I'll have to watch them again now to find that one.
  4. World of power, FR Jones, Skyland and Honey Bros all list it in stock. How far did you look ? All similar price about £560ish FR jones sells it without bar for £525
  5. When you're in deep **** it's time to stop digging
  6. Edited the post now. Posting on tablet doesn't work like the PC. It went off prematurely
  7. List your stolen equipment here makes it sound like somewhere to fence stuff you have nicked List items you've had stolen would sound less suspicious.
  8. The Rochdale paedophiles were targeting mainly white teenagers because they see them as cattle, racism works both ways and shouldn't be tolerated on either side.
  9. Is it the cover melted or is it chip getting hot and fusing to the plastic ? I've seen it on a few different saws and it scrapes off like a dust with the plastic still intact underneath.
  10. I think that would be going back whatever the assessor says. I've seen trailers covered in farm muck washed off and still in better nick than that. You don't need mordant solution on weathered galvanising only on fresh stuff.
  11. Updated on my 4s and it's up and running again. It's giving me pro tips
  12. I've noticed in a local park two old sycamores a couple of hundred feet apart have failed to leaf all down one side this year. They don't look well at all.

    Stihl ms260

    Clean the carb out if it's been stood any length of time possibly fit a carb kit with diaphragm and needle, set the carb to manufacturer standard (screw H&L in then open up 1 full turn usually) then tweak it from there.
  14. Spelt still wrong ? I'll believe it's still running when he posts a video of it.
  15. I'm just surprised you admit to playing golf with either hand, what kind of person are you ?
  16. I set fire to my overalls crotch using a 125mm angle grinder, a tool which I am comfortable using left or right handed just by unscrewing the side handle. Making a left handed chainsaw would be a major redesign process for the manufacturers and would probably make left handed saws prohibitively expensive.

    Ms200

    You'll struggle to find another carb that will work with the MS200 and where is the plenum chamber ?

    Chainsaws are not flying round a track through the cooling air and their cylinder fins are in a cowl, they need all the help they can get to stay cool. How much more performance do you need out of your MS200 ? Was your go kart air or air and water cooled ?
  19. Permethrin spec sheet here, it doesn't sound good for cats. Here's a list of different bites and what they look like
  20. 036 was flooding and being a pig to start so I had another look at it today. The fast idle position on the choke was not opening the choke flap enough so I bent the choke linkage and the throttle a bit as well and it's different altogether now firing up and picking up nicely.
  21. You don't need to swap the switch just bypass it and switch it at the wall. I did it with my pillar drill when the zero volt switch failed. Two thin bits of metal to join the spade connectors together and if it runs you know it's the switch. If it's clunking it's not the switch. You only need an analogue tester set to something like 10,000 ohms to bridge the contacts and watch the needle jump up then come back down if it's still good. If it's bad the needle stays up as it's not discharging.
  22. I am still getting the bubble and if I go to login I get Access Denied This forum is currently not available, please try again later. I wondered if it's because my phone is old and the latest Ios update is not available for it.
  23. We get a wren in the lean to most evenings, comes in and looks round all the eaves for insects then either get comfortable or leaves. When the young ones fligged they all came in with her and they were hopping into everything looking for the way back out till I opened the door for them.
  24. Still same no topics bubble.
  25. Just deleted and reinstalled the app and it just has a bubble now with no topics under it. Tried to sign in and is now says access denied. This forum is currently unavailable, please try again later. I read on the PC mostly so not a big problem and the mobile site view on the tablet is quite good.
