I've got a promac 610 and have had a pm700 in the past. Didn't know they made a 650.
Yep they also made a 655 that's the one I have never seen but they all share the same parts darn heavy for a 60cc saw but gobs of torque for a 60cc though. Lol

Well, after spending considerable time fixing a rusted out brake line on my son's truck... I found out that the leak was actually coming from higher up, dripping onto the suspect line and making it appear to be leaking. Grrrr!
So I now have replaced a rusted (but apparently not leaking) line with a newly fabricated one and still need to replace the long (front to back) line. That's not all I did today but that seems to be the burr under my saddle right now.

Think of it this way, at least it's all good now.

Yeah, when I discovered I wasn't done, I quit for the day. The truck can just sit up on the hoist until I get back in town a month from now. (my son doesn't need it as he's out of the country anyway)
Lol. Mean while it will most likely leek somewhere else while you're gone for a week I've had that happen. Got to love trucks they always keep us busy just like saw's

52 hrs this week. Yeah today will be a short day cause I said so. Il walk off the job if I have to when 4 PM hits. Still have a locust trim lined up for this weekend of the weather holds off for a few hour its about 400 dollars worth of climbing for building clearance, dead wood and thin the canopy to let light through . I've never seen a honey locust as thick as this tree, it will be a tangled mess.
Hope yall have a good weekend and happy Friday

What I've learned from my past experiences... When it is time to replace one rusty brake line, it is time to replace them all. Otherwise you just end up back under the thing doing the same thing all over again, after the brakes fail going down the road again. Good times I tell you.

So I finally decided to tackle rebuilding my front columns on my house, they didn’t use cedar for trim, it’s spruce!!! :( From a distance it looked ok but it has been driving me nuts! lol and I never like how they had done a few details! So I am starting over!

Finally sorted out my VW GTI. She's my daily driver and been having sporadic starting issues for months, which leaves one wondering when they'll be left stranded next. Seriously, that is NOT a good feeling. Gut check every time you turn the key. Do I get to walk, or ride?

Over the last few days I got a couple "possibilities" out of the way, plus a few needed fixes, including a new driver's side door latch as well as a valve cover gasket, plugs and wires. The latter requires removing the intake manifold and busting open at least two knuckles.

On the test drive I think she's sorted, then she dies - right in front of the house... whoa! This is new!!

Back to searching for an answer and after a couple hours I finally find it. Engine temperature sensor. When they go bad they cause all sorts of whacky hijinks with these engines. Run to the parts store and within 3 minutes of returning we've got it swapped out.

13 bucks!!! Three minutes!!! I've been chasing this down for months and now she just purrrrrrs like a kitten...
