  1. Carbon monoxide and creates a ton of moisture but are great at pumping out heat. 30+ Kw in a draughty barn makes working with your hands bearable. 15kw is around 1.5 litres and hour
  2. Could be one of the early ones with the worn crank shaft output, you end up with a wobble that binds when the clutch is spinning.
  3. How old
  4. For Business sellers yes or after purchase, but not beforehand as they know what's happening. Bit like the old bought it, got the address details then cancelled the sale or some similar shenanigans. Once or twice it might let it through but regularly they'll close the account.
  5. Actually the algorithm pretty much understands both numbers and words and a combination of both. Oh let's write a whole sentence with the numbers subtly included, great or just do what they had in the past. You pay a listing fee and let you have a number in the description, if someone bought it it was then just cost a few precent of the value. Or just do what everyone seems to do throw it on marketplace at double the price.
  6. Only if you're subtle and even then it's very difficult. What's why people put business cards, logo in background etc to get around it. You try putting a phone number in the message box and it'll block it entirely and keep doing it and they'll ban you.
  7. Nah pink isn't my colour, to paraphrase because I'm northern, up there for thinking and down there for standing at the bar. I know my limits, I probably could but I'm not sure people would appreciate a permanent wind chime 😉.
  8. I don't do climbing and go easy option of all or nothing 🙂.
  9. That was the way in the past, bit like the advert in the post office. Either way they got a little of something and more if it sold and even more if it was paid via PayPal, now they'll get nothing if everyone goes marketplace or elsewhere.
  10. The next home brew attempt will be a can of fosters in a laundry bag on the end of a rope. Lightweight, throw it up a tree, rope up and drink before home time and can goes in the customers recycling bin.
  11. Don't think eBay care about legitimate money or not, they care what they can move through their multiple location companies to pay zero tax. Plain and simple it's about money, the IKEA model of each service is provided separately so it means less tax than an all in one arrangement of old
  12. Bearings within a housing like that need the whole assembly taking out as it's designed to leave very little space for things to wobble when running. Usually easier to put them in a hydraulic press supported from behind and use the hydraulic ram to push the shaft out like a hub puller. But to be honest, take it somewhere. Plus that spacer is now fit for the bin, if as I suspect it's a locking bushing, it's now junk and needs replacing as it's integral to how it keeps things tight.
  13. eBay lost it's way many years ago, same when it abandoned PayPal. Then they started those free sites like vinted to attract the yoof, double your operating costs and wondered why your business makes little money, unless they just rely on music magpie and those sorts of volume sellers.
  14. All bearings have play, jase can advise on that. Personally I'd be looking elsewhere for something catching the blade.
  15. Is it really worth the risk ?
  16. Even if it's just a spacer instead of a taper lock, he'll need a big wrench to free it anticlockwise as it'll be tightened and full of sawdust. And note, remove the spark plug leads!. Are the bearings shot, noisy as that looked pretty ok.
  17. It's called a key, pair of wire cutters and it should come out. Plus that bearing is probably the locking collar type with a grub screw, unless it's just a spacer.

    Do you mean 4117 160 2900 or the alternative that's not listed on the part list ?. Stihl FS 106 Brushcutter (FS 106) Parts Diagram, G-Clutch housing WWW.DIYSPAREPARTS.COM View Stihl FS 106 Brushcutter (FS 106) Parts Diagram , G-Clutch housing to easily locate and buy the spares that fit this...
  21. Or ring the dealers in Warrington, I'm sure they'll know of someone or have a broken trade in somewhere.
  22. More likely hedging his bets just incase Lucifer is actually real or those things he actually did come back to legally haunt him.
  23. It mostly smoulders.
  24. 300mm / 12 Inch Expanding Steel Pipe Stopper WWW.ALLPIPE.CO.UK 300mm/12 expanding steel pipe stopper, with an expansion range from... That's the kind of thing I was trying to describe poorly. But it would give you the extra safety of a metal plate using water pressure 🙂
  25. If you do find one, think we deserve a YouTube video of the poor sod fighting it as it tries to float away 🙂.
