There was a carburetor with a small passage on the metering side of the body. Danged if I can recall which one though. For whatever reason, many people seemed to be just overlooking that little hole and were having troubles with the carbs. To me it it was no different than making sure you had...

A death in the family can leave a lot of things like that behind. Take a look through Craigslist ads and the estate sales and then the free sections. The free section will often have a few photos of the things that didn't go at the estate sales.

You'uns hear that dripping noise? :stick: That's muh heart a bleeding for all y'all vertical video posters with cell phones.

The room temperature has a very large influence on my dreams. About 6~7 deg F range between mostly ok-ish sleep and vivid nightmares.

Edit: looks like my laptop has an issue with uploading the image. I think it's getting about time to do a fresh try of Linux again.

Heck. With any luck, the heater is still in the hallway. 20 gallons of Cool-Seal on the roof and you and the damned mice are warm and dry for wrenching this winter!

wtf is it with "pink salt" ads and youtube?

Anyone else got the nickname "albino" in mind?

Always check for loose ribets?

Mom used to make homemade banana ice cream in them. Can't recall why she didn't like using the churn for that one flavor. If i have to guess, maybe the churn&dasher turned it too mushy?

Makes a fellow start looking at the oil hole in the bars and doing some bars laid on top of each other. Will the tail allow a slight trim of length, chain path and so on... Studying if the oil hole needs to be spot welded shut and a new one made with your handy rotary tool. Don't forget to...

Just guessing here. But I expect it's due to the old ball slinger type recoils being smaller diameter than the new pawl types. Edit: If you do run the new style recoils, be mindful of bumping them or tipping the edgers over. The sheet metal in them bends pretty easily, compared to the old...

Ditto. I was trying to count same looking parts (on the board) and look for any groups of common numbers. Guessing at a phase count or something.. Can't see in the cylinder to know what's there. Long bolts in that part, don't look centered for an axial load. 2nd piece from left, top row, almost...

Speaking of moist.. Opened the front door earlier, reached back for the knob and got "Wet Willied" by the outside of the door knob. Even the deadbolt was covered in condensation. I guess it's time about time to go around and hit all the door locks with the WD-40 can and tube.

The 35 dollar specials are rather temping for me. I need to cut out a bunch of neglected Holly and other stuff around the old home place. I've got several choices of bypass blade pruning shears, Up to 3 ft handles. But if you're wanting to make selective cuts, it's not really practical with...
