    Fumoto works for getting oil out - What can I use to get oil in?

    Fillmoto In all seriousness though, Oil Safe makes some excellent pump jugs.

    Ethanol Adulteration

    In my opinion Ethanol isn't the problem but it magnifies the other problems that already existed. One example of this is carbs on Honda engines. Everyone blames ethanol for the issues but there are numerous cases where there are the same issues without ethanol.

    Just ordered a gun locker

    I have this Stack On one from TSC. https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/stack-on-18-gun-welded-steel-security-cabinet-with-beveled-edge-hammer-granite-2398296 Only issue with it is guns with scopes take up a lot of room. I have outgrown it also.

    Leaf Blower Gasket

    I doubt that is where it is leaking from because you would have issues with it running if that was the case. It could be coming from the fuel lines or primer or carb. The crank case on a 2 stroke has to be sealed for it to work. When it is not running there is nothing but a minimal amount...

    Kohler Command 12.5CH

    Helicoil. That would be a very easy one to do. Kits aren't that expensive on Amazon. On second look it looks like it has been helicoiled already but now I see what you are talking about. You could jb weld it but I would just leave it alone.

    Leaf Blower Gasket

    Base gasket or cylinder gasket should get you in the neighborhood. What makes you say it is leaking? 2 strokes will run erratic if there is an air leak and eventually burn up.

    Leaf Blower Gasket

    2 strokes don't typically have heard gaskets or heads. Do you have a pic of what you are needing or where it is leaking from?

    I must have this! Mosquito air defence

    A bug zapper that blinds you and only kills things in front of it? If it could kill house flies and not blind me I would buy one.

    Can fumes of used oil make you dizzy?

    Used motor oil contains Benzene that has a very low toxicity level. 1ppm is the twa or action level or whatever OSHA calls it (I should know it considering I just had training about it). Unless you just drained 20 gallons out of a bunch of crummy running vehicles I doubt it is that. Could be...

    Kawasaki fr691v smokes badly

    The first picture makes it look like the piston is sloppy in the cylinder. If the piston can move around a lot in the cylinder that is where your smoke is coming from because the rings are worn out also. Run it till it dies. I wouldn't put much money into it.

    New tool thread

    Working on an old Snapper rear engine rider. The old flat head Briggs like to loose the threads in the top shroud bosses so figured I would need these.

    Toro Tecumseh Lost Compression; found a screw

    The less you mess with it the better. Run it till it dies.

    Anyone Here Own A Dueling Tree ?

    I don't have a dueling tree but I have several of the spinning targets. They are fun also. I like the ones with a small top and big bottom. I used to be able to keep them spinning but haven't been able to for a while. Every now and then you turn them around and start pounding the steel back...

    Toro Tecumseh Lost Compression; found a screw

    Could be the picture but it looks like that isn't its only problem. The cylinder looks gone.

    Midwesterners

    It was nice when that went away for a while in 2020. It isn't like I have much of an option around here.

    Wago implementation

    That has nothing to do with the Wago. I have reused ones that have been submerged and the wires rotted out of them when I didn't have another on me. Never had an issue with them.

    Thinking of getting a Milwaukee Packout toolbox or similar?

    The most useful things I use of the pack out are the crates and the rolling box. Most of it is a waste of space or annoying to unhook them to get to the one I need. If it wasn't for them practically giving them away during 2020 I wouldn't have them. If I had to take my tools off the job site...

    Best way to reduce .mkv file size.

    Some DVDs in the later years were double layer up to quad layer so there is much more data than a regular single layer 4.7Gb disk. I would see if it is possible to just copy that main title that you want and ditch the other versions/languages or whatever else they cram on the disk.

    New Bad Boy Maverick HD

    Mom and Dad just bought a Hustler Fastrack with a 60" deck and the fx730 Kaw. Basically the same thing only bigger motor and deck. It only has the 3200 hydro gear drive but I think the only difference between the 3400 there is aluminum case and pump size. They traded in a Dixon that had...

    Fluorescent Lights Issue

    There is still a starter in the T12 magnetic ballasts but they don't always last forever especially if they are switched on and off frequently. If they are turned on once a day and left on the rest of the day they last forever. I have changed ones that died finally from the 60s and some ones...
