It's a McCullough

Ok.. sounds like a plan.. could be that as it smokes a bit after shutdown 

Got a 2 stroke leaf blower. 

It only runs faster than an idle when the choke is half on.  If I give it throttle,  it bogs down and dies 

Starts easily enough

Has fresh fuel as was last run a year ago. 

Any ideas

The milkshake was tipped out and new oil added.  She seems to be running nicely. 

Thanks for asking

I am gathering quite a collection of kerosene toys.  3 tilley lamps that go.  3 that don't. 

Some hurricane lamps

4 stoves

This heater

Full on apocalypse set. Better get a drum or 2 of kero

Thinking I will rattle can it a similar beige.  Burgundy or british racing green pin stripes??

@felixx - found your disco 

Im confused... this happens a lot at my ageI

Thank you !!

I was thinking bluetooth to rca, save a link.  All I want is music

 Not to phased about phone functionality 

So my music in the Anglia is 2 speakers connected to a small amp.

Input is rca - 3.5mm headphone jack. 

My phone is dying and the one i'm looking to replace it with has no headphone jack. 

I need rca - bluetooth.

Any of you used such a thing? 

Im blaming lockdown brain.  

I have the same feeling.  Im so close to a wof, I just needed that last trigger..

I reckon it has to be better than nothing.  There is a guy selling the same unit on the tard for $230

Im not sure what you mean.  I get confused easily these days

It might just go on the shopping list next week

My heater had a leak so I disconnected it.  About 10 years ago. 

Thinking about one of these as a replacement.. what do you cats think??

Feel free to discuss my Anglia here.  The other fred disappeared

hehe thats what I did.. 

Anglia's mechanicals are now wof worthy so I think pootling to the shops / CD work is a fun exercise

5min on a mig and she is WOF ready

Yay no wof needed in covidistan...

... you can reg,no wof

El Barto.. is that my car or your missus?

If there is no signs of oil in the cooling system, it is likely to be condensation buildup. Especially if you only ran it for 5 odd minutes from cold every now and then.

If you can get hold of one, perform a TK test to be sure.

Thank you so much.  Neighbor has compession test/ let down test kit.  

I will let her drain overnight,  replace oil and report back
