Morning folks.

Muffler outlet on the MS461 is stupid small.

We supplemented it with our quick & crude adjustable flap.

You don’t drive thru a residential neighborhood with a semi.

Him and a large box truck we’re transferring goods in the public school driveway in front of our house.

Minutes before I had asked the driver why they couldn’t use a parking lot or one of the truck stops to shuttle goods.[emoji848]

I called the police.

City street Dept cut it up just enuf to clear the street.

I’ll get a chunk or two later (hard maple).

 

[WKEND LUMBERJAK]

Warmed up.

Took the old Dodge van up to MC Auto in Mound City to get the brakes fixed. Two’fer deal.

Strange, the front calipers are not releasing and dragging the pads. [emoji848]

Will trade/buy/sell chainsaw parts with Curtis (owner) Tuesday late afternoon when I go back to get it. [emoji6]

Reading the Cabool newspaper just now about the Older Iron Show. I see A.J. and Abe and James did a lot of winning in the tractor pull events.

As soon as I gave the 362 back to my friend he handed me a 201t. It got dropped out of a bucket and bent the bar and the brake handle broke. He said it wouldn't start ever since he dropped it. I reset the gap on the coil and checked the plug. The plug is good but still no spark. Does anybody have a good coil I can borrow to see if the coil is bad? They are $100+ for a new one. I'd like to make sure that is the problem before I buy one.

Un hook the kill site at the coil to verify there is not a short to ground.

I think I've still got a few 201 laying around. Might have a bar as well.

Well, I did what Kenneth said, reset the gap, hooked an impact to the flywheel, and BAM, she zapped my butt good. Put it together, filled with fuel, and she is running like a top now.

Got to love spell check. How in the world did switch get changed to site.

should have had the misses hold the plug.

Morning everyone, hope everyone is well. I don’t check in much but still view quite a bit.
Got a small load a few miles down the road last night

If you have a good handle I could use one. The handle I have works fine but has a chunk out of it.

Bad rubber brake lines can cause that as well. The rubber on the inside breaks down and acts like a check valve.

Quite possible as it’s 24 years old. [emoji848]

I’ll let Curt figure it out. I don’t crawl under cars anymore. [emoji6]

Didn’t get any maple chunks. City picked up the mess at seven am. [emoji15]

Tree is showing signs of splitting at the main crotch so I’ll get some large log section when they have to remove it. High tornado like wind should do it. [emoji1696]

Another hot one in line for us today! Enjoy the sunshine!
