I’ve PROPER ABUSED my old girl [emoji51] think i bought it back in 2005 time, gave £150 for it, (cash [emoji6]) and only ever put a carb kit in it other year when the chuffing thing conked on me half way through cutting my hearth for my fireplace [emoji13]

He runs it on stihl’s red one shot hp oil in a 5 litre tetra can. My only concern with the 5 litre cans is that they can actually hold more than 5 litres! so if you nearly brim one i think theyre nearer 5 1/4 litres, so to put a one shot in then means obviously a leaner mix. Hes had it for prob 8yrs that i know of, not sure how old it is, there is a serial number on the crankcase so could possibly find out, its a very clean cosmetically example for a used TS400, majority are normally far more battered, i know mine is ?

It there no way you can drill a hole and put a grease nipple in? Some lube is better than no lube.

Never played with husky saws at all, are they all same in respect to their pistons and only having a single ring?

Nothing obvious at all, just a lot of bag in the con rod / big end, quite a bit of up and down movement and you can also feel excessive wear when twisting left to right too. Cylinder and piston are good, if it was mine for what work it’ll do i’d just replace crank, bearings and seals.

Agreed, they do look the nuts! But its not mine, its a mates, he generally looks after his stuff, saws clean all round but cranks shat itself, just one of those things. I’ll leave it up to him what i do, just crank and bearings or if he wants to re pot it too, i’m not fussed. I like the 400’s over later models personally.

I’m buggered either way eggs till i’m 55 cos i cant touch it till then. I’d buy another house tomoz with what i have already in my sipp pot if i could. Time will tell though, owt could happen between now and then.

Concrete saw gone tits!!! Clunky dunky on pull start... suspect crank knackered. Suspicions confirmed, big end worn and con rod wonky donkey!!! Time for a full rebuild kit me thinks.

Thinking sensibly (my thoughts obviously, others may differ) if health and all other circumstances are looking good in 18 yrs when i hit 55, i’m going to take my 25% tax free lump sum to start with, and see where i am with rest depending on amount remaining etc regards tax.

Could be fuel related, check your impulse line too.

Was just going to forward ya that link, i think it works out more cost effective to buy the spray, but i suppose with the gel you can put it on the concentrated area a lot better and more accurately, as with spray it’ll go every where.

Hey... leave my ears out of this! ?

Is it related to nitromors [emoji6]

Embarrassed....... no! Chuffing fuming..... absolutely! I had the task of fitting new though. Post some pics of your saw, people may advise on whats missing.

Never tried cilit bang on any part of a saw personally so cant comment, but i’ve seen what it does to some plastics. The mrs cleaned her kitchen in her old flat one day with it, she was fairly chuffed with its results on the tiles, cooker etc so she moved on to the bathroom with it. It melted the shower head and made the toilet seat blister, destroyed the hinges on the soft close seat and discoloured her bath panel..... shes never used it again!!! So i’d be a bit dubious about running it through a saw for those reasons.

I think i remember you mentioning when we had a natter [emoji106] Off to my pit now mucker, got 4am get up tomoz, going up to our middlesborough depot to sort one out thats been stood from friday 21st dec till today. Wont start so presume flat batts. And a trailer with some brakes stuck on and couple of lights out. Be good [emoji106]

He needs to “gift” a certain amount, drop him bk under threshold, bound to be a loop hole somewhere.

Cough cough!!! Splutter!!! Fair play to him eggs hope he makes the most of it ?

Flabbergasted good or flabbergasted bad?...... just had my forecast through actually eggs! At the mo, retiring at 66 (not 67) as my pension was set up before regs were rewritten again, if i continue to put in what i am till i retire, then i’m looking at £8k per annum. That figure will rise obviously between now and then. I’ve only been paying in to that one for 8... nearly 9 years. I’ve got 10yrs worth from my final salary pension to take in to account also, i transferred it nearly two years ago in to a sipp, as it was frozen cos they stopped the final salary [emoji30] not sure on return from that at min as i’m due to renegotiate on it cos my 2yr period is nearly up.

“Why I'm divorced." Written by a man. I went downstairs for breakfast hoping my wife would be pleasant and say, 'Happy Birthday,' and possibly have a small present for me. As it turned out, she barely said good morning, let alone 'Happy Birthday.’ I thought …. well, that's marriage for you, but the kids .... they will remember. My kids came bouncing down stairs to breakfast and didn't say a word. So when I left for work I felt pretty low and somewhat dejected. As I walked into my office, my hot boss, sam, said, 'Good morning, and by the way Happy Birthday!' It felt a little better that at least someone had remembered. I worked until one o'clock, when sam knocked on my door and said, 'It's such a beautiful day outside, and it is your birthday, what do you say we go out to lunch, just you and me.' I said, 'Thanks, sam, that's the greatest thing I've heard all day. Let's go!' We went to lunch. But we didn't go where we normally would go. She chose instead a quiet bistro with a private table. We had two red wines each and I enjoyed the meal tremendously. On the way back to the office, sam said, 'It's such a beautiful day … we don't need to go straight back to work, do we?' I responded, 'I guess not. What do you have in mind?' She said, 'Let's drop by my place, it's just around the corner. After arriving at her house, sam turned to me and said, 'If you don't mind, I'm going to step into the bedroom for just a moment. I'll be right back.' 'Ok.' I nervously replied. She went into the bedroom and, after a couple of minutes, she came out carrying a huge birthday cake, followed by my wife, my kids, and dozens of my friends and co-workers, all singing 'Happy Birthday.' And I just sat there .... on the sofa .... naked!!!
