    Walk behind leaf blowers Fradan vs Little Wonder

    1-1/2 acres of grass. Done the bagger and takes too long. Have an older 11hp giant vac. Need something bigger. Use my neighbors newer 13hp LW and it’s what I need. Just seeing if anyone has used Fradans as I can go that way for less than half the cost of LW. Sent from my iPhone using...

    Walk behind leaf blowers Fradan vs Little Wonder

    Hi all Time for a new blower. Looking at Little Wonder 13hp but also see a lot of 14-16hp Fradans available used. Anyone used both? I can get a Fradan needing a repower and put a new 16hp Honda clone and be about $500 vs a used LW 13 or 14hp for about $1000. I have used the LW and know that...

    Chain sharpener pferd chain sharp CXs

    Having made that mistake already the spacing of the bars that lay on top of the cutters is different. The 404 is too wide for the 3/8. Get the smaller one marked for 3/8. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    The Sea-Foam Trick

    i think its 1oz/gal for stabilizing... if you need a good clean, i would put 1oz in a half-full saw tank. as long as you have fresh gas with good oil mix, i believe you're fine. idle/run it for a few minutes to get the treated fuel into the carb let it sit for the week next weekend fire it up...

    The Sea-Foam Trick

    I use sea foam as my stabilizer in my jugs. Then I'll add my oil mix to that. It's in every tank. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Stihl MS290 bar/chain conversion

    8x325 is slightly faster than 7x3/8 if the saw can keep up. My 036 pulled the 8x325 great. I grew up on an 029s for 20 years. Torque is more important than chain speed. If there is excess power for the bar size (think 20" on 046) you can think about bumping up the sprocket but if it's even...
