  1. Marc, I do realise that the 335xpt wasn't exactly Huskys finest hour, I was thinking the same, there must be loads kicking around not used in a box hence the question. Not to worry, hopefully I've guessed right on the parts front and the 335 parts fit.
  2. Gents, Thanks for the heads up on the ebay link however our local Husqvarna dealer has assured me he will have the parts for Monday. That's about as good as it gets for ordering on a Friday. The original saw is a normal UK 339xp but the piston and cylinder were toast hence the new parts. I'm sure it will need a bit of setting up to get it to run right. The saw has already had a muffler mod (although not run it since) and if I get 30 seconds away from work at the weekend I'll be out with the dremel/die grinder on the cylinder before fitting it. Hopefully it should be a good wee saw eventually. In a fit of madness I bought it a Sugihara pro lightweight bar...
  3. Hi folks, Its a long story but I'll explain the short version. I have a 339xp that was in need of a piston and cylinder. I found (at great expense) the genuine Husqvarna kit for a 339xp (California) from the USA. Apparently a straight swap. So the parts arrived yesterday and with in about 60 seconds I noticed that the pipe from the carb to the cylinder is totally different. After some googling I'm pretty sure the parts I need are from a 335XPT. What I need it the rubber hose from the carb to the cylinder (intake hose). The picture below should explain better. If anyone out there has a scrap 335xpt in a box I'd be very grateful if I could buy the parts from you. I can get it from the dealer but I'm in a rush for it and none of the local guys have it in stock. Thanks MT
  4. Does anyone have a recommendation for winching gloves? Ive been using Ringers Roughneck and they are really good!! Very hard wearing and havent managed to get any bits of wire through them yet. Only down side is they are rather pricey. I need a reasonable amount of dexterity to work choker chains, shackles etc so welding gloves are out. Ideas welcomed.
  5. Just another thought, if you hold a post 97 licence do you need any extra provisional, hazard perception or theory to drive in a learner capacity?
  6. So... am I right in thinking that if I were to lend someone my Land Rover (3050kg MAM, actual weight 2400kg) and ifor (3500kgMAM actual unladen 900kg) they need a +E to tow it? However if L plates were attached and I (C+E and all the rest that automatically goes with it) were sitting as the responsable adult then we would be in the clear, assuming its not for hire or reward? In essence how do we train people before going through all the expense of a course?
