Strimmers, mate? Those. Chain saws. Anything, pretty much, which is managable and has a 2 stroke engine. Down side is that ye'll often as not come by said engine because it's already f*cked. But then; feint heart and all that .....

 

Of course, having got ye covvetted engine (Think; Lawn Mower Repair Workshop ;)), there's still that bit of mechanical tinkering usually to be done. Getting a suitable length of exhaust pipe welded on, usually. Then ye better to source some heat proof hose.

 

Might be nice if some veteran 'Smoker Maker / User' could do us a Post of exactly how it's best done and any little wrinkles? I have a Smoker of my own here. Never yet been used in anger. I have no suitable Dog and anyway, the wrinkle with this b*stard is getting it started at all in the first place! :laugh:

Managed to get my little chainsaw started, but it still drips petrol and when i take the choke off (i think its the choke anyway lol) it just cuts out ?

Maybe it need running a bit before i take the choke off as it has been sat outside for ages.

What about the dripping petrol ? How do i sort that out ?

And I have to take the chain off right ?

Cheers

Look for crack in gas tank first, second check the gasket on the lid of the gas tank, take the entire bar assembly off too .
