I can sympathise with your neighbour. We used to have a woman next door, first fine day of the year and she would light a fire to burn anything she could find in the garden so we had to shut all the doors and windows to keep the stinking smoke out of the house. Yes it's time to get a house in the middle of nowhere Stefan.

My old saw said 25:1 but I ran it 40:1 for years and still going fine. Why do you need 3 different oils ?

Ours had its second cut a couple of days ago. I lowered the cut and took the tops off all the worm casts and it looked like the Somme but it's greening up now.
-
That would be the coil.
-
Just out of interest what is the end of the plug lead connected to ?
-
Righto, I'll leave it with you.
-
Convert it to electronic ignition with something like a Nova II or a SIG 01 module.
-
Does it have a fast idle setting.? Set it to fast idle to start it if it does then warm it up and adjust it from there.

Can't see anything about trees on here, could you be a bit more cryptic in your posts as I like a good puzzle to get my brain working in a morning.

Have you screwed the tickover screw in completely then out 2 turns ? Back it right out and then screw it in gradually till it ticks over. it pushes on the linkage to hold it open not like the other two screws which regulate air fuel mix. Hold the trigger open and start it then release till you get to the speed you want and screw the screw in till it engages the linkage.

Does the oil hole in the bar line up with the pipe ? If the pipe is suspect replace it they are not expensive.

It picks the chip up at the same time I heard

FR Jones Chainsaw Sale: Stihl MS 261 vs Husq 550XP
peatff replied to Mark Wileman's topic in Chainsaws
Saws you are getting through would still be under manufacturer's warranty at 12 to 18 months wouldn't they ? -
Don't you have to lock the throttle to apply the choke ? Press the interlock and squeeze the trigger then apply the choke and release the trigger to lock it on. Do older models work different ?
-
Is it same thread as a spark plug? Same for Husky and Stihl according to this and this

If it's a split rim it's useless used tubeless anyway isn't it. If it's on a solid rim with a tube no problem if it's seated but if it's tubeless the ridges don't make any difference, it doesn't seal on them it seals on the lip touching the bead.
-
Why would a tyre spin on a solid rim any worse than on a split rim ? Once it's seated on the bead it's not going anywhere in a hurry or tractors would have problems all the time.
-
It says under the bar cover in the first post and it pulls over with the decomp button pressed, just sounds like he's not pulling hard enough or he's put it together wrong. Is he putting it on the floor and standing on the handle or trying to drop start it ?
-
Take the saw back, let them show you how it works.
-
Only criminal thing I find about them is the amount they charge for a transaction but banks are as bad. A friend of mine was telling me how his bank charges him something like £7 to deposit money into his shop account now.

Guns don't kill people, rappers do.

I thought the point was simply that the tree was heart shaped ?

That's because of the security certificate, the site is not https. That's not really a worry for forums more for sites where you are passing on financial information like card numbers on paypal. You can still get phishing attacks on secure sites. I read earlier that the site is applying for SSL certification.

Anybody working on this ? I've been following it since a couple of weeks ago when the local paper reported that the new owner had given people who had been on there 25 years a month to vacate. It sounds like the new developer is out to make changes.

Nice moves....
