No, plate is off.

I'm sure I must have some wd40 but I haven't seen it in a while if so.

I may die of boredom but I don't think that counts.

'Zactly. Some spam-filter avoidance technique? Or is the dollar really that unpopular? :)

Definitely not the case. Don't even have the chain on right now.

Besides the spam...     ?

I have it a few pulls this afternoon and the first two pulls, I got a "pop" at the start of the pull. I wonder if it could be flooding (I had the choke off though). I'm going to try and get the carb done this week. I have the cleaner and I'll be ordering up the kit.

Already had the muffler off. I had the flywheel off (I was starting to believe I would have to disassemble the thing completely to get the new fuel lines in). If the rain stops today, I'll dig out the compression tester. I'm beginning to settle on the idea of it being the carb though. I'll order up a carb kit and get some cleaner.

It's a bit of an effort around here. I'd suggest starting with used equipment because a lot of people (like me) just find it too much effort. It's a cool thing to do though and I can see where people would become addicted to it. If we were closer to salt water, I think I would have stuck with it more.

I was reading the EO on the ammo was Clinton. Not sure about all the other stuff. A bit of discussion here: http://forum.pafoa.org/general-2/53680-why-china-banned-importing-ammo.html

Ah, prez Clinton's little gift to us.

Yeah, I think ethanol screwed it up and I've only been using non-ethanol since. I threw away my gallon of mix just in case it was left over ethanol gas. I guess it wouldn't do any harm to give it a proper clean. I guess the mixture may be far enough off. The spark didn't look amazingly strong when I tried it in the dark but I kinda don't expect it to be especially so on a small engine like this. The old plug gave a much weaker spark though so it's an improvement.

He's talking about more manufacturers. Though I suspect most are seeing this as a temporary blip and whilst they are no doubt increasing production as much as they can within the parameters they have available, are probably going to avoid long-term capital expenditures. Though they may bring forward plans for new equipment and keep older equipment running for longer. I'm surprised that the Chinese aren't getting into it. I think they need all the lead for childrens' toys though.

What size is the bed there?

Definitely on. Believe me, I checked that several times. I've been bitten by that before. Also tried both choke and no choke. Possibility the carb is gummed up. Though I am definitely getting some fuel but maybe it isn't enough? I could try a new plug. Or maybe just put the old one back in. Possibly the spark is just not good enough so I'll give the regapping a go tomorrow. It's a cheap Poulan. I can't remember what model. I think it's an 18" blad.

So sometime last summer I went to use my chainsaw and it wouldn't start. Poking around a bit, the filter fell off. Fuel lines gone bad. So I ordered up a repair kit, (spark plug, air filter, fuel filter and fuel lines) and just got it all installed. Still no start. If I pull the spark plug, I definitely get a spark. I think the fuel is good. If I pull the exhaust module, I can see fuel spraying out (and managed to get it to catch fire). I believe I have the fuel lines wired correctly, outlet of the priming bulb to the tank return. Tried fresh, no-ethanol fuel. This thing doesn't even make any attempt to want to start. I even had someone spray stuff at the inlet while pulling and not even a stutter. Compression feels normal. Air, fuel, spark. Everything should be there. Hard to think that the timing could be out. I'm stumped. Any thoughts?

Clearly not big enough to do whatever he wants.

One of his sketches was actually called "Benny 5-0". (it may be in that link. Didn't watch all of it) Edit: Longer version http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wmwlm9MwBx4

Clearly, the more expensive the rifle, the more material it uses and hence shipping is higher :rolleyes:

Robert, I agree with you. I think the problem is that if you refuse the search, the school may well take punitive measures such as expelling you. Which should not be legal but it's where it is right now. Still, I think the message is clear: Refuse the search because expulsion (and maybe not even that. Does anybody know?) is a whole lot better than a felony charge that will ruin your life. I hope you all are teaching your kids that. And they wonder who no one respects authority any more...

Oh, I just figured that was attached to the "manly" part. We also towed a fair bit with out 3.8L Windstar but that felt the drag a lot more than the Jetta and I think it may have contributed to the blown head gasket. Which is a little worrying as I believe it had the same engine as the F150 (?)

Hopefully they'll be able to claim that the knife was not a weapon and it will get dismissed or he'll be found not guilty. The stupidity of schools is one thing but for god's sake let's not let the laws go there any more than it has already.

Used to watch it as a kid. Pretty funny, especially his character that would make toast by hanging bread on a wall and using a blowtorch on it. Some parts of it were obviously very Benny Hill inspired but still good stuff. Leo Wanker was clearly a rip on Super Dave Osbourne also.

  Like doesn't mean just "like". Because that's the only option, it gets shoe-horned into all sorts of uses.

  The media are soiling their britches about social media making them irrelevant so they're trying to compete with it on its own field and merely hastening their own demise.     That guy is an arse. And he's no friend of conservatives either.
