Remains of a shed?
Free cuppa and he's cut the steel into manageable lengths for you - double bonus
Thats not a skip ,, its a steel supplier.There is a load more there, some of that box section is in 4` lengths so I will nip back in there and grab some more. Because all the scrappies are shut around here he is drowning in it

After a good cleanout, it has; fuel flowing nicely, good compression, and an ok spark. It also has a dead weird sized spark plug. Botheration.
Yes, they usually sort me out. Currently, if I cant eat it, Im not buying it. It will keep.Useful shop here
Why cant I get those pics?Yes yes, you need to ask the owner, its all in hand. Been sent a couple of pics this morning..
Because the url signature has expired. I dont know what that means...Why cant I get those pics?
It cost me a fiver for a spark plug and started first pull, once I'd sorted out the clogged fuel tap. Clutch is a bit sticky but everthing seems to work..
Smoke screen generator?
It did clear a bit after a while. Flippin 2 strokes..Smoke screen generator?
Having got it more or less running properly, time to try the attachments out. the finger remov erm mower ate itself slightly but didnt actually mow anything, nothing serious jest needs a circlip. and a bit of 3in1. and some adjsuting. I tried the cylinder mower next. right hand side cylinder was stuck so I took off both sides for a tinker and tried it with just the middle one. It did mow some grass, but there was smoke coming out of a casting that I assumed was full of oil and gears and stuff so I stopped it, and took the cover off to find this.
As the chances of getting spares for it seem quite remote, and the bottom pulley is going to need a new outer welding to it, I suspect you are right.That will keep you busy for a few minutes.
