    Non ethanol gas

    Sorry to hear that. No marinas where you live? Most of them have it in my area, but cost a little more. In Alabama, we have non-ethanol convenient in most all areas. Recently, I stopped in a gas station to fill up a large portable tank with real gas. Station was out of e-gas and expecting...

    Non ethanol gas

    Just read the first statement, huh? Yes, that is why this statement is in there, " Of course fuel injection is more efficient than carbs" That doesn't change that ethanol has less energy for bang in a suck, squeeze, bang, blow scenario. No amount of computer control can change that. Fuel...

    LOL! I don't mind heavy if I can get away from a hose and compressor. I don't use them that often but that hose gets me every time.

    Non ethanol gas

    Sorry, but I have to disagree. My old carbed engines are no different than fuel injected when it comes to the amount of energy needed to rotate the crank. There is no magic happening in new engines that somehow work better with less energy. Ethanol has less energy! Nothing changes that...

    Thank you for posting that! I've been looking at that Ryobi framing gun. I've got most of the old blue tools that still work plus a lot of green ones. The finish nailers are awesome. Now that you have informed me, I'll be getting the framer. I just looked at it today and walked out without...

    Non ethanol gas

    Fact, 10% ethanol kills the mileage in my old carbed blazer by 15%! How is ethanol better? 10% ethanol added makes me buy 15% more. Ethanol has almost made any small engines disposable due to most people not knowing anything about engines or how to clean a carb jet, dramatically increasing...

    Running a Grapple Off a Remote Circuit?

    Cheapest option is to get the diverter kit where you split off from your curl/lift function. My experience, you will probably end up wanting to be able to curl/lift at the same time you open or close the grapple. True third function is well worth the money, in my opinion. If you start with...

    Probably a newbie question- skid steer front mower on M62 using aux hydraulics

    I'm not familiar with the front mower, but as for the button, absolutely, there is a way. Actually, there are several. Probably the easiest is to switch the button from momentary to constant. This could have negative effects when using other attachments, though. I'm not familiar with your...

    Laser Pointer Buying Advice.

    Please, don't use a laser to scare someone unless it is actually attached to a weapon or you have one readily available. You may be dealing with the one that will call your bluff and you will be wishing you had something more than a battery powered light when projectiles start flying toward...

    If it were just the plate, sure. But look at the frame on the right side of the picture.

    Straightening ideas

    You want it to just work or you want it repaired right? If you just want it to work, you can drill the hole out a little so the pin can move a little and make it easier to line up with tractor links. If you want it right, you are probably going to have to take it to someone that can heat and...

    Pole saws

    I really like my Ryobi chainsaws and pole saws. I have both the 18v and 40v versions. The 18v is a little slow for my liking, but the 40v is almost the same as a gas unit, without the gas and having to maintain or snatch on it. The 18v is really handy for occasional use due to having 18v...

    Pole saws

    Yes, you should. I bought one around 10 years ago with the intention of painting my house and then selling to get my money back. After seeing how useful it was, there is no way I'm getting rid of it unless it is to buy another one. By far, one of my best investments. The only problem is...
