  1. Does anyone know the engine code in the 160 as I know it's a focs lombardini but don't know the code
  2. It's an old model with the FOCS engine non turbo. The fuel pump I mechanical and has been replaced for a brand new one. The rotor is smooth and free and as for breathing I've checked all the hoses and filters and they are all ok
  3. As in the stress management sensor?? It's not working that's the next job. The belts are only tensioned with the weight of the engine and it's not on the stop yet so would they cause the engine to bog down ??
  4. You can't adjust the belts as they are on a canter lever. I've redone the whole fuel system. Pipes, pump and filters. It only bogs down when you engage the flywheel
  5. I have a kwikchip 160 and the engine starts runs and revs up fine but as soon as you engage the flywheel and show it a branch it bogs down and take ages to build up to full speed again. I've changed the fuel filter and fuel pump also had a full engine survice. Just wondered if anyone has any ideas on what else it could be Thanks
  6. I'm in Hertfordshire peteB

    Yesterday was a bad day for me as we had been sent to reduce 2 big arse london planes in Tottenham high st. Now planes are a bastard at the best of times but these 2 were over the roofs of 5 storey buildings footpaths and a main road. I had got to site and for some reason I thought I dont like the look of these so another climber done the first one and I got up the second. I positioned my rope and had the saw sent up still in the back of my mind I was getting nervous and panicked. I did about quarter of the tree and then boom out of nowhere I had a panic attack and had to get down. I then kicked myself for the rest of the day as the other climber finished it off for me whilst I chipped up. It really got to me as ive done bigger more awkward trees in the past Sent from my GT-I9300 using Arbtalk mobile app
