I agree. Bust a cap in it's ass. Around here, white tail deer have achieved vermin status. Thicker than fleas. Moose are dying off and getting more scarce due to the brain worm disease carried by deer. State wildlife management in Minnesota have serious concerns about their moose...

Looks like some metal was removed in the second image. Top fins look thinner. As previously mentioned, I'd get a couple different size small wire wheels and go at it with that.

I had a problem with an old Tecumseh engine that was hard as hell to start and was running lean. I pulled the main jet/float bowl nut and filed out the jet holes with a cutting torch tip cleaner. Much easier to start after that and ran just fine. I suspect over the years, the holes had gummed...

Why 5 minutes in an OPE shop? I've got decades of my own personal experience owning/operating thirty five or more pieces of OPE, motorcycles, ATVs, riding mowers, outboard engines, diesel engine power plant etc. I do all of my own maintenance and ensure any seasonal equipment being stored...

More ethanol hysteria........... I've been burning regular unlead with ethanol in it since before the Dead Sea was getting sick. Use it in everything from cars to chainsaws. No snake oil additives. I make sure the fuel is clean and not contaminated from the pump, store it in air tight...

Last spring, the wife's niece (cousin to the other dimwits) called for me to look at their lawn mower. Said she couldn't get it started. She came to drop if off and I couldn't believe what I was seeing. It was covered in pine needles and even had a few pine cones on it. I looked at her and...

A few years ago, my sister-in-law phoned me in apparent distress because her 20ish hear old son had disabled two lawnmowers, one of which was borrowed. I told her to drop them off and I'd take a look at them. Both arrived with the pull cords/recoil starts broken. So I had to fix them before...

$629.00???? Don't think so. That's about two hern more than it should be. That's got to be $200.00 of pure brand name mark up.

If Echo saws aren't as well built as other top brand saws, how do so many of them last so long? In addition to that, how much of a difference in cost is there in material alone on purportedly superior saws? Is there enough to substantiate the difference of a couple hundred dollars between...

The old line of "You get what you pay for." Can only carry additional cost so far. A lot of what is spent on a high end brand anything is paying for the name. For instance, Sony TVs were the cat's a$$ for decades. With the arrival of other premium quality TVs such as Samsung for...

Baaaaaahhhhh ---- boo bahhhh. Grab your Wellingtons, get out the knee pads, and find your favourite fluffy date.....

Six more beer........ Where's that freaking remote????????? Joking aside, Echo make some very good top handle saws.

If you can find it, "Oil of Eye of Newt" has a recommended ratio of 100000000000000000 (take a breath) 00000000:1 and can be run in engines spinning so fast, they can't be measured. Apparently, Amsoil is suing the O.E.N. Manufacturing Co. due to a claimed patent infringement. Amsoil...

Thanks. That's the RD400 engine. I have it in a Chapparal Red bike. This is the RD350 engine. Slightly modified.

A few years back I was doing some work on one of my motorcycle engines and had it sitting on the kitchen counter top near the sink. I had just brought it up from the basement and put it near the window for better light. I was just giving it a good once over before putting it back in the bike...

Do wut?

Wasn't me. Just looked like me..........

Didn't Ted Nugent have a song called "Butt Plug Fever"?

Sorel make a good winter boot for reasonable prices. Regardless of what brand you get, buy a good pair of boots and pick up a couple pair of felt liners to go with them. Keep a pair liners with you at all times. Don't underestimate the importance and comfort of dry boots!
