Our hydro's 'right of way' is a mere 25ft, (12.5 both sides of power line). Most trees like to reach 40-50 ft high so not to ask why we have so many power outages. Heck I've seen them actually use a transit to be sure they don't cross that magic 25 ft line. Oh, I must add the questionable...

On my009 the 1st pull is always full choke. Next pull is choke off and it always starts.

Also have a 009, my favorite. Arborists love them. Mine always starts on 2nd pull. Suggest that a possible 'cure' might be replacing the 'in tank' fuel filter, they do get clogged up over time.

I once had an Austrian snow machine that was all based on VW components. The power was transmitted via what I now believe was a viariarer such as U describe. Was very smooth to drive. Machine was a Westmizer Skinner , was either Austrian or German. It was very fast and agile.

My test for speed is as simple as a 'flick of my bick' i.e. the spark of a lighter flint, and I have done a fair bit of welding.

I use one of those cheap helmets. I have my DIY test procedure that seems to work OK. I call it "flick of my BIC" whereby my helmet should react instantly at the scratch of a flint.

LOL, welcome to my club.

I DIY'd a similar setup for my Mitsubishi K3 engine. It is so tight in the filter area that nothing slips in there. I use a length of seat belt and vice grips. Wrap the belt and grip with vice grips and presto.

I think it is rather simple. If the 220 VAC generator has a 3 prong connector there is no ground. If 4 prong connector one has to be a ground with the others being hot/hot and neutral.

My system is up and running for months now. I never added a grounding and so far no problems with any electronics. What came to mind. When a 220 generator is wired with 4 conductors you have a ground (green) that does the job. Mind U my genny is 9000watts. Smaller generators (like 3-4000)very...

Hi Test gas only , air gun blow clean often. I have owned owned chain saws for over 60 years and rarely ever had problems. I always keep my chains sharp and use a file.

2013 sure suggests poly pipe. Running and holding 20/30 makes it sound like the problem might not be serious, like perhaps a leaky or poor fitting. As to depth you might be lucky there as that can hand pull 100 ft easily. Constant running @ 30 PSI actually hints at a ruptured bladder tank or...

Wife placed an on line order weeks back. Seller's web site claimed 'delivered' but no signs here. What happened is UPS left it at a local 'drop' and it was signed for by the 'drop' clerk so when we went to seller's web site it showed 'delivered' and to make it worst UPS attaches their own...

Got lucky! A friend was scrapping an old school bus. Under some rear seats was a small heater about 6'' x 6'' size. I modified by installing a muffin fan. That was some 10 years ago. Same school bus donated widow glass for w/shield and rear.
