    Thanks for the information. I will let them know. This saw was still new in the box. Didn’t look like it had ever had fuel or oil in it. But must have sat for a very long time for those fuel lines to get that dry.

    Yes, that is an older model...should be a date on the data tag somewhere...I have a couple that have the old style controls like that one does...I would guess they are 15 years old minimum

    67° full sun. Going for a walk with my wife.

    It's shorts weather, regardless of if it gets to 70° or not. It's supposed to cool off after tomorrow. Next week doesn't look very nice either. I think I'll have enough wood on the patio stack to last through the end of this month. We're just having fires at night now.

    Funny you mention this. My cutting buddy's limbing saw is a craftsman. And it has fuel line issues. It's like black or dark grey and probably 20+ yrs old, so it's probably due anyway.

    Yet my old 029s sat for 2 years and started up in under 15 pulls with fresh gas put in it.

    You mean my slippers?

    Speaking of feet, I'm going back on my medicine, my feet are doing like yours, so I'm down to slippers, but now my hands too, so started it again yesterday. I feel kinda stupid now because it can take months to be effective again, but. My 90 day scrip came last week but there's stories out there it's backordered because of the virus. We shall see.

    I am still hurting bad but I swear the warmth and sunshine are helping. I’m not struggling to get to the kitchen in the mornings. We deal with the hand we are dealt. I really think a warm climate would help you.

    Tough deal with a lady with baggage, I don't do well in humidity and cold/air conditioning hurts worse. Think we're staying put til kiddo graduates, we'll see what the future holds, courts closed and banks backed up from covid19 and the devil has his hands busy. Who knows.

    Severe t storms here. Hail might be coming. Vehicles are in there garage. My wife washed her 4runner, while I cleaned up the shed, and threw out the old mailbox, an old snowmobile cover that apparently turned into a mouse house, and I hung up the old classic bicycles on hooks from the rafters, so they are out of my way until I find someone to buy them. Also found a small Werner ladder that I don't use, so on to CL with those items. Got my dynatrap set up outside too.

    Edit.. Hail now. Not big yet, but it's hail.

    Ok, pretty big pieces. 20200407_160958_HDR.jpg

    This one was 2" around. There were bigger ones, but I wasn't going outside to get hit with one. Those would hurt.

    I've never seen hail that big in my life.

    Good thing it was brief.
