75 year old insulation of dubious integrity instead of Chinese insulation of dubious quality. Starter motors like voltage. Low voltage = more...
Operating voltage on most 12V systems is ~14V. I doubt 18V nominal is going to bother a starter. Common practice on old tractors to switch from...
Felled quite a number of trees against the lean. Light trees I will under cut, back cut, then push over with a skid steer. For heavy trees I use a...
There is some ash here that could be milled. Pretty limited amount. Depends how large the tree is and if there is much for straight larger...
I’ve started turning down wood. So much dead green ash out that I have enough wood for 10 years by my rough guess. And my wife is making noises...
Never. I design my chimneys to go straight up from the stove. Use double wall pipe once the chimney is past the heated area of the building. Run...
I wish I could get a little softwood to burn. Makes better kindling also.
I see pump kits on Amazon for $20 give or take. Body and pumping elements, suction line and screen, and the nylon gear. I need the gear anyway . ....
[ATTACH] If there is supposed to be a screw in the hole indicated by the 90* pick then we are missing a screw . . .
Plastic gear behind the clutch is junk . . . But I’m not getting any oil working the steel gear by hand so it looks like more digging will be in...
No oil out of the oil hole when run with no bar. Looks like we have to start digging . . . Never had an oiler problem with a Husqvarna till now.
As the title says, the bar oiler is not working on my brother’s Rancher 61. Any ideas what might be going on? I filled the reservoir so that isn’t...
There are some forums suffering from Denial Of Service (DOS) attacks; as I understand it it is a barrage of automated attempts to log into the...
No time, no money, and I’d rather have a 372 than a 572 but that sure is tempting — Sioux Falls is not that far from me. Probably sold already.
This is the first time I’ve been able to get on in several days. If it makes anyone feel better a forum I frequent has had problems loading and...
No milling. I run 20:1 because I have seen what happens when 2 strokes don’t get enough oil. I have never seen a problem running 20:1. No plug...
I store my saws in a state of readiness. Full oil and fuel, chain sharp and tensioned. Never had a problem with that. E10 gasoline and 20:1 oil.
Me.
We had some idea how to price the work going into it and we have worked together in the past so coming to an agreement on project costs isn’t new....
Stump grinding not included in my price. 50 man hours; 9 hours of myself plus 2 people, 23 of hours just myself. Neighbor is short of help so I...
