    Probably OK with ratchet straps going front to back and side to side. I'd want at least 6.

    I did the back door (load bed) on my last one but did not bother with my new one as I'm always busy now luckily. A friend of mine has had the back door and both front doors done and it looks good.

    A hose on my mower went and that was not seen due to the fact that it had tough plastic covers on it. That was not dangerous as such as you would have had to be standing right in front of the cutters but it did dump a load of oil as I could not see it from drivers seat and only noticed a couple of minutes later when the oil dropped in the hydro tank viewing window.

    It may take longer as the car is not his I'm guessing. So it will take longer to move through the system. I got one on my first leased truck and it took about 6 weeks as it went to the lease company first Were you actually taking blood somewhere?

    Don't panic until (if) it comes if he's on the bridge he may not have got you. I was doing 85 on the A1 m and saw one on a bridge at Christmas and nothing came of it

    Where was that ? best price I can find is about £40 for 5l of the green.

    When I passed my driving test the first thing my dad said when I got s car was don't get s personalised plate. As people will recognise you too easily and report you if you do something stupid. This was 22 years ago when not many people had them.

    Will get a picture if they have any left. My luck says they will be sold out👎
  13. Richard 1234
    Thanks I will have a look at that. I presume I would be able to get parts for it?
  14. Richard 1234
    Ok I think I will have a trip down there in the morning and see if there is one. Thanks all
  15. Richard 1234
    Thanks but that means not a deal to me😁😁 are you saying I should get a dolmar for similar money?

    Is this saw any good? And if so is the price about right? Makita 43cc Petrol Engine Blade Chainsaw 38cm | Wickes.co.uk Many thanks

    You should try and find a local place because if they are not outwardly damaged they can normally be repaired internally. Worth looking into especially if it's a pump not a motor.

    Try these online quite helpful. http://www.hydraulicsonline.com/

    The key is in the name here lawn sand. You may not have it in the states but it has iron in it at the very least. So it's not just sand he's talking about

    I'd put some weed and feed type stuff on it. Leave it a couple of weeks cut it high and see where it's at maybe oversees if it's still thin. Just keep cutting it a decent height and it will fill itself out to a point anyway. Cut in opposite directions each cut as well. As in up and down one cut then side to side next cut as it encourages it to fill out.

    Try hss they have them in Lincoln that's if you have a hss down there. Also speedy hire do them I think they are national too.
  22. Richard 1234
    How many hours did that take to mess about with? Looks to be a right pain!
  23. Richard 1234
    Try British Gas they may still take you on a contract if it's not too bad! We've had service cover from British Gas for years well worth £25 a month as they are really fast to come out. They normally can get parts overnight and fix next day if it's not on the van.

    I'd get a bike handle machine if just for strimming as its much easier to control in my opinion. If doing banking etc you can tilt the handles backward to keep the head level with the terrain yet still stand quite upright if that makes sense. I would stick with 2 strike of any of the decent brands as they are all pretty similar. I'm picking a stiga brushcutter up next week just over £400 with a Kawasaki engine on it and the anti vibe like the Stihl for a lot less money!

    Looks like a pin dropped through a hole correct me if I'm wrong which would mean most farmer can pull it I would think. All the tractors I've seen have pins near the pto.
