And passenger vehicles there was a wall of fame in this Honda dealership I did work for tons of late 80's and early 90's with 3,4,500,000k miles on them. They had pics of the car with a service record. Just regular routine maintenance on the wearable parts
Exactly! I would prefer a clutch you could disengage!
If you guys have DeWalt batteries this is a game changer in winter, especially for prewarming equipment and unfreezing things that are froze
I hope you and your wife make a speedy recovery. Been there done that in mid January 2020 from a business trip to L.A. It was the worst week of my life after I got home. Get well fast.My Squaw tested positive fir Covid and now I got it pretty bad. Its a bum deal!Hope those of you that haven't gotten it yet never do, and the ones that have. Don't get it again.
Try polishing the outside of the needle. Maybe it has burrs on it.
My wife has owned nothing but Hondas and an Acura since 1987. All of them were well over 100K miles when we sold them. I never had to do any motor work on them other than the normal timing belt and a water pump maintenance. The Acura had 218k on it when we sold it. That motor purred like a kitten and didn't use any oil.
That and a float that isn't set correctly.
The SuperSplit is mechanical and the Honda motor does have a clutch on it. My NorthStar 37ton splitter has a Honda on it and it starts on the first pull in cold weather. You can feel the resistance of the oil when you pull the recoil on it.
There should be lots of trees available in Maine for you to get your hands on. Neighbors are your first source for free wood. Word of mouth that you will remove trees for firewood goes a long way to get trees for free. I use to do some tree cutting for a few people at cheap prices and took all the wood. Now I have more of my own to deal with because of dying Ash trees.
My wife has a 04 honda crv going on 210k I have a 97 crv going on 130k we had another 97 crv that was well into the mid 250k range. Just in Michigan the dang thing rusts out bad before the motor even thinks about conking out. I would like to find a first gen crv that was from a state that doesn't use salt or calcium chloride on there roads
Get one from down South and rust proof it.
Bored with a stroker crank and rods . I did modernize the cam its a full roller now so no more super high zinc oils with the super high price
Here’s to a speedy recovery . I had it last fall my 88 year old mom gave it to me . She did early voting and then came to my house for the weekend for a birthday party. Well there was no party but both her and I had very mild symptoms lasted about 4 days but the fatigue lasted a good two weeks . My wife never got it think I got it on the two hour car ride from her place to mine .My Squaw tested positive fir Covid and now I got it pretty bad. Its a bum deal!
Hi Philbert have you tried the purple power at all? I was wondering if it was close to the super clean being that I can get it right in town easier.
Rislone sells a zinc additive for cheap money.
Would rather do away with it than guess if the ZZDP is high enough in a high performance motor .
Clean the carb, while you're in there you may find something.
How do you set the float on them, you just put the pin thru it and the needle on the float.
Warming the unit before pulling helps reduce that, good thing you have a honda so it's not really a problem though
.Swisher makes a splitter that the pump is run off a belt, and there is an engagement/ disconnect lever. It works well for cold weather starting, but it seems like it's very hard on the belt engaging it when it's real cold.
That's a great option for warming a splitter prior to starting it.
Good to see you here Matt.
My wife bought a 2012 Chevy Impala, she put 252,000 miles on it and then decided she needed AWD, so she bought another Chevy three years ago, she's crowding 80,000 miles on this one, she always gets her service done by her Chevy dealer.
