Nice load, Dan!

In need of an IPL and/or service manual for a Stihl 08 (not "S")...

That connection is called a lovejoy or a spider joint. It's a common item, available at Tractor Supply or the like. You likely will need to replace both sides (pump and engine) and the rubber spider in the middle. It's likely that the shaft size on the pump and the engine are different, so...

That would make a nice Christmas card, Robin!

What the hell are we listening to, Dan?!? Nice tractor usage, regardless.

Welcome home, Dan! Rest up, and go easy on the cotton candy.

Suddenly the post count is waaaay up. Must be John is home!!! :rock::rock::rock::rock: Welcome back, buddy. We sure were worried about you!

Ron is not going to be pleasant if he doesn't have coffee two days in a row...

Wow, that's horrible! So sorry to hear that. :cry:
