    You might change your mind if this was the result!!

    I like Dolmar/Makita products, its just the spares availability that lets them down!
  3. 2stroke-ady
    All these different pitches and gauges are an absolute nightmare! Add to that different manufactures using different names and numbers it just makes a big ball of confusion! I don't know how joe public are meant to get there head round any of it!

    £150 inc vat should cover it as long as there is nothing unforseen. Unfortunately we are the other side of Notts to you NG228EF. Would of thought there was someone good nearer.

    I can't see where they get that price from! As far as I can see there is only one tank available. You could get one from us if you were in the notts area, but being an old fashioned kind of repair shop we don't take cards yet! so no mail order. Where abouts are you?
  6. 2stroke-ady
    If its £151.60 inc fitting thats a fair price, its £97.52+vat just for the tank.

    I think your having yer leg lifted! I make it £97.52+vat part no. 575 38 22-05

    5/32 file 30 degrees 0.65mm depth gauges Straight off the back of a husky chain box. The chain is H37.

    Would of thought it is the same as oregon 91, Oregon make most of husky's chain at the moment anyway.

    According to my stihl book 72dl is correct with an 8 tooth rim sprocket. It should be the same for an oregon bar but you never know!

    Any idea how many meters per second that chain is travelling? Are ordinary chainsaw trousers adequate in the eyes of H&S etc?

    Had a look at the brake bands that came yesterday, they are modded. The ones that broke had a slot, the new ones are solid.

    Looked at service bulletins for 550xp and 560xp on husky service site. No mention of any chainbrake issues at all.
  14. 2stroke-ady
    There must be something a miss, I fitted two last week! Will have to find out about the modified one.

    The only common thing missing from the list is fuel filter and fuel pipe. Surely if the accelerator pump has been changed in the carb the diapragms have been checked and the height of the needle lever set all though that is no garantee you have a good carb.

    Sounds like its your coil! I've had a few over the years, the connection to the cut out terminal must break internally. It almost sounds like someones cobbled together a load of knackered bits and stuck it on ebay!!

    Blants farm near burntstump used to take green waste, don't know if they still do. I think someone at oxton does as well, Norush will tell you better.

    I thought you were about to say you put some jubilee clips around it to hold it together!
  19. 2stroke-ady
    Two Stroke Lady!!!!! you've really given No Rush some ammo now! I think I might have tommorrow off.
  20. 2stroke-ady
    I think the 288 was the same.
  21. 2stroke-ady
    Winding recoil springs??

    I've seen a piston ruined by using the rope method! The rope went out the exhaust and cracked the edge of the piston crown off above the ring! I remember someone saying tie a knot in the end of the rope to stop this happening. Personally I've used a half inch impact gun for years if the clutch has an hexagon on to remove them if not a hammer and punch. I always tighten them with the chain brake.

    We have a 2 man Teles Smith and a Solorex hanging outside the workshop. They are in pretty poor condition but cause a bit of interest when you point them out to customers. Has anyone got a twin cylinder chainsaw, I saw one in bits many years ago, I've no idea what it was. And what about the Dolmar with the wankle engine? anyone got one of those?
  24. 2stroke-ady
    So it was invented for amputating limbs then! Ironic, I seem to remember you trying to do that a couple of years ago!!!

    Fleetwood mac are a strong rumour for Glastonbury next year!!
