Well that’s another fucking thing that’s busted.

The dam ain’t big enough for the two of us. It’s either me, or the log splitter……………..

What be your vote?

Haven’t started the thing for 8 months. Put petrol in, and it just pisses out everywhere.

It starts, and runs all right, but can’t have petrol piss out everywhere around a hot motor. But then again, if I burn the thing to bits, it’s an option.

I know where it’s coming from. I can feel a split (can’t see it) in the fuel hose where it goes into the carby.

Bugger of a thing to replace too. Basically gotta pull the carby apart and get the petrol tank off somehow. (and get a piece of pipe).

Ironically, after 8 months the starter battery still had a full charge in it to start it..

FMD….. and you lot reckon you’ve got problems!!!!

At least the tractor seems fully fixed now. $2,400 later……………. 🤬🤬🤬

Do I need to come visit? I’ve been known to replace awkward fuel lines.

What kind of motor is it?

I should be able to manage. Tis a “Chonda” 6.5hp. I’ve got a few of ‘em round the place.

Got a new chainsaw as well. All I’ve done is start it so far.

Quite a bit of fallen branches around that need chainsawing up that I just mow around ATM.

Anyway, you can come visit anytime. Haven’t had visitors for a while. 😁

Oh. A firefighter pump motor. Shouldn’t be too hard. You’ve probably got a motor that could donate a fuel line. All fixed by lunch tomorrow…

Now where is the old motor from down at the creek?
