  1. just use a complete strimmer shaft as an extension
  2. In every fake ive seen they dont have the part numbers moulded into the parts.
  3. take exhaust off and look at the condition of the piston through the port. classic sign of a scored or worn piston and cylinder.
  4. What model is it?
  5. is it a clam shell engine? if it is one set will be for replacement when the engine is dissasembled and the other for when its assembled.
  6. Put the circlip in your pocket before you remove the pulley as if you place it on the bench whilst your working the spring has a habit of flying about in all directions and swiping the circlip off the bench never to be seen again.
  7. if you buy that and do it yourself with help from here you'll be looking at a total cost of about £100, Thats the crankcase, plus a set of gaskets/seals and whilst its all apart i would put in new rings and fuel and impulse pipes.
  8. Ive a Lider 7x4 with the above tip function and the only thing its any good at tipping out is rain water after downpour.
  9. Does it pull over a full stroke with the spark plug out? if it does it appears like its just got very good compression,
  10. If its nice and shiney with the paint still on the bar, stick it on ebay as spares or repair when they have a cheap listings weekend and with the proceeds youll have enough to buy yourself a brand new one and have enough left over for a week in the sun. People are paying crazy money for knackered gear on there at the moment. I wish id not cleared out all my scrap 2 years ago. Could have got twice as much for it today.
  11. 2 month old fuel, id say thats your problem.
  12. Available on back order from L and S, just depends how long youre wanting to wait or you could fit a ms200t part
  13. Oil tank should not empty in 2 mins even though they have little capacity. Id clean it all off and run without bar and chain or side cover on to see where its coming from.
  14. something wrong somewhere as the grey plastic bit that connects with the trigger should sit futher back and rest on the trigger at idle
  15. Firstly before buying a saw is the wood you intend to cut yours? as you could be wasting your money if it isnt. Many of the woodland owners round here would rather let fallen branches rot away than let someone untrained with a chainsaw on their land. Id go for a Stihl MS231
  16. Just use Aspen 2 in everything
  17. Ive had a new Honda mower on order most of this year, keep getting the told that Covid has caused delays, war in Ukraine is stopping delivery when i call in to ask where it is. Wasnt to fussed about it not arriving this year as the one im using is still mowing but needs replacing but now im hearing Honda are stopping production of all walk behind mowers next year.
  18. Land-based training courses, chainsaw training courses, Morton Training WWW.MORTONTRAINING.CO.UK Land-based training courses in chainsaw training, pesticide training, groundcare training, tractor training, health and safety and plant machinery
  19. How have you got it back if youve been paid out for it? I had a Motorbike stolen and paid out by the insurance and when it was found dumped on waste land a month later the police recovered it and the insurance company collected it from the police. I found out where it was via a community facebook post and offered to go and get it from the bottom of the ditch but the police said as ive received payment from the insurance company i dont own the bike anymore so had no claims to it.
  20. Is this oak slowly dying? Been neglected for years and so has the land it sits on, im slowly clearing all the self set blackthorns and getting rid of the rubbish but this oak is causing a bit of a concern as it looks to be dying and if it is could do with coming down.

    HT75 price

    You wont get back the money youve spent on new parts and labour.
  22. 80-100
  23. So for the cost of a pair of crank seals £12 you scrapped the saw?
  24. seen a 440 with something similar on a new 25 inch bar a while ago, oil hole was not quite in right place on the bar, so opened it up and it was fine. Took some finding though as without the bar it oiled fine so never checked position of the hole for ages. Put bar and chain on and tension correctly, dont use the side cover use a couple of spare nuts and washers. mark a line on the saw and the bar so you can locate it in the same place. Take the chain off and line the marks up so the bar is in the same place and start it and watch to see if oil is flowing into the groove in the bar.
  25. the main bolt that goes through the angle drive is missing and the drive looks to have come away from the main gearbox. The main bolt has a little screw that screws down onto the flat that is on the bolt which is only accessable by taking off the black handle.
