Them 6 wheels are a beast! Got one at work with 1/2 turf 1/2 knobby tires, can’t get it stuck. Just added a 50gal spray tank on it, so it’s off-roading days are done.

Don't know if this will help anybody, but I was given another epa gas can today.

They all need vents....

Easy I have dozens on hand.

The push to pour spout was broken. So thats a little problem. I never found a way to seal them to my liking..... Until just now.

I just received a box of parts and the first bag on top was 10 weed eater purge bulbs.



Fits nice and snug. Just going to have to make sure it's dry when replacing it otherwise I'm sure it will blow off.

But dry I pressurised the can to 10psi and it didn't blow off. Going to try 15 tomorrow after the seal all on the vent fully cures.

It's a free tip so take it for what you paid hahahahaha

Edit: those little suckers hold tight. I stopped at 20psi think they might be a winner.

This came in for inconsistent starting and running funky View attachment 187177View attachment 187180
Thought it was a plugged vent because it was caked with chips! Well it wasn’t View attachment 187178View attachment 187179

I had one do the same thing,, sent it to NGK,, reply was nothing was wrong,,,,

 

[huskyboy]

The new no spill gas cans are crappy compared to the old style metal ones. The cap also lets water into the fuel in the rain after the rubber seal leaks or falls out after a few weeks. Have to put a plastic bag over the cap to keep water from getting in if left outside. Garbage.

 

[PA Dan]

Got a TS800 and I ask myself why? Hate these machines. Came in because it wouldn't start. I pull the plug and it's dripping! Leaving it dry until tomorrow and then I'll see what's up. I know it has spark and it's getting fuel so it should start. Hopefully they just flooded it!

I have someone I know that claims NGK warrantee the motor that blew up because of the spark plug failing, I take it with a grain of salt!
Then there was this Had that happen with one pass with this
I still love ngk, but stuff happens

 

[Wilhelm]

Sheared threads on the plug?!
That sucks.

There is no quality control anymore nowadays, and the used materials get worse in favor for a higher profit margin.

 

[MustangMike]

Change to "materials used"

I'll be honest
Ngk sparkplug factory is 30 miles from me
Let's just say
It's got some uninspiring worker's.
The mtv show buckwild was filmed there
Sissonsville wv.
I know many of the worker's lol
I can get champion for 1.50
I've been running them for year's no problem.
I used to only buy ngk but had a couple aggravating failures
Out in the woods and a couple customer rebuild saws
On brand new plugs
Just my opinion but their quality has slipped.

 

[MustangMike]

Sorry to hear that, but thanks for the info. They have been the only plug I have been using for a while now, but I guess I have just been lucky. I will check them more carefully before using.

Ya it seems like it has, I have had several odd issues, but that’s with hundreds and hundreds of plugs! Lol have seen some autolite issues, and champions don’t always have the correct heat range for some of the stuff I do. It seems like ngk has the most options for heat ranges.

Just rebuilt the shaft.......I need a bigger bench and longer arms.

 

[redlight066]

90% of this ready to go. Sent a bunch of texts out today. “Hey slacker... come pick up your “stuff”. Headed out of town for the week of the 4th. I’m ready for a little R&R
