Been warm and dry today. Went for a "big shop" and the shops we needed were all open, at least in the morning. Had lunch outside :eek::eek::eek: for the first time this year at our usual brasserie. I had "moules roquefort" which I have never tried before. I recommend it!! Have a good evening...

I liked your post but really I am expressing fellow feeling and worry as high "stuff" in your blood cannot be fun. I too have been recommended statins, and maybe I am sticking my head in the sand but I also told the doc "No". Whatever you do, look after yourself. (Speaking as a bloke of more...

There is a I believe a school of thought that says fill the tank to the brim and leave it like that. All I know is that ever since I bought most of this machinery in about 2010 it has worked well on start up after following the "empty it out and run the carb dry" advice, and the chainsaw still...

Does he mean the V8 one converted to run with the TD5? That was a thing a while back. But the three bolt mounting thingy has to be converted to 4 bolt.

No, just the spark! 🤣 🤣

When I were a young un I had a few of those, don't seem to see them around any more. I'd like one as never kept one, or bust em all, can't remember. :(

So the two stroke has a spark. so I ordered a noo carb. Prices are mad ranging from not too much to half the price of a noo brushcutter. So I ordered one. It'll be with me before July apparently!! :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

No, I didn't even ask, i did it on my own!

Sorry mate, deepest condolences.:(:(:(:(

It makes no difference, I have tried it both ways. The more I read about it all the more I think it needs a new carb, but I have yet to change the plug. Modern petrol seems to play absolute total havoc with carbs, well small ones, and even carb cleaner seems to only move the problem, not...
