Yesterday, MV6 has had a oil change and around 30 coolant flushes, new coolant bottle to cure the coolant warning. Also gave the lawnmower a once over, ready for the summer, clean and regapped plug, cleaned air filter, and a dose of Vx semi synth. Then thought I'd better use it - so that means that will be my weekly chore until autumn

Also, took the MV6 for a little 'test', fuel light was on, so chucked in £10 worth of BP.  Didn't last long


Today, did the aux belt, right bastard for some reason.

Then as it was a nice day, decided to strip that old tractor engine thats been sat in my garage.  Stripped right down now, right done to the block.  Never knew those crankshafts where so flipping heavy


Knackered now, the amount of bending over as the engine was on the floor, I guess I'll regret it tomorrow

You have been busy.

That engine had had something like Slick50 in it I reckon

I got Mick Dundees car running very nicely today....and fitted some new door locks....and looked at an astra with a lumpy idle,

And changed the oil on the mower for the 3rd time in 3 mows (I will get it clean!)

LOL, mine was just dark brown from last year, so not in too bad nick....

This one hashad annual servicing by a professonal.

I have now fully stripped it, cleaned it, ground the blades in, setup the drive and brade levers the lot!

I no longer have a grinder, so not sharpened blade yet.  I'll whip it off next time I see my little brother and let him sharpen it - if he hasn't killed himself with those duff brakes of his

i got up around 10 ish, watched the GP, played xbox COD5, then errr, played more xbox.

Finished off the day with some more xbox and cod5

Nearly beat my record, 35 kills in a row while in my tank

Blade...just the one!  

This is a cylidner mowers so its coarse carborundum paste on the blade tips and rotate it backwards against the knife 100 times.

They cut paper quite nicely now!

Fancy a cylinder one myself, but this one still works fine, so will keep it until it fails.  Its Honda, so direct drive, so good chance I'll bend the crank one day

Was up just after 06.00, showered & breakfast. Went to a car boot & turned around when i got there, they where nose to tail for 3/4 of mile at 07.30 waiting to park
Decided to go to another & got a few bargains for work- 12" Bahco adjustables for £5.00 & a tool box full of sockets, spanners etc also for a fiver= NICE 8-) 8-)

I haven't really got to change the oil on the mower have I? we had it as a wedding Prezzie 5 years ago and apart from put petrol in it i haven't really serviced it
