Hi Folks. Saturday was supposed to be drop off a mower and that was it. I forgot a customer was turning up because of fuel leak. I replaced the fuel pipe as it had a split in it. It still wouldn't start, so I drained the float carb and found it had water in it. So I cleaned the carb, and it still wouldn't run. While the carb was in the cleaner, he went out and bought us both bacon buttys and drinks from Splits in North Bersted parade. That butty was perfect. Anyway, I eventually decided the problem was the fuel because it didn't smell right. So I drained the tank, put fresher fuel in it, and with a few shots of easy start to help it run while clearing out the old fuel, it ran sweetly. After that, it went mental. I'm just glad people were happy. But the main point of this post is this event that a customer is putting on at the Chichester Festival Theatre. He's also pretty good at cricket I've heard.
Hi Folks. I would just like to say a big thank you to all my followers, as I've just hit 751 subscribers. In December 2025, I hit 600, and now 5 months later, I've gathered 150+ more people that like my content. I'll have a beer to celebrate tonight. See you next vid folks.

Said in a Poltergeist films voice. "It's here!" I've waited 4 weeks from a supplier that couldn't deliver this Suffolk Punch Zenith carb gasket, so I cancelled the order and got another one that was delivered in 3 days. I try to keep customers happy, but if I'm not supplied with parts, it's not my fault! Just hope the grass hasn't got to tall for the cylinder mower to cut it.
Hi Folks. I just got an update that I now have 701 subscribers. Thank you for hitting that button and I hope you'll be happy with my content as it's not only how to fix, I also asks why did it fail in some videos. And thank you again and I know, I need a trim Dug
Hi Folks. I still ache a bit, but it's the sudden stretch to grab a tool reminds me I still need time, and I haven't turned on my PC for a while, so haven't had time to edit the vid about melted plastic gearbox bits. 2 things happened while I was in the workshop today. I had a Honda mower that I thought had a stiff link, which turned out to be a small stone jambed between the roller and the drive sprocket. The second thing was I put on a new pair of work gloves, and my right middle finger seemed to come up against something on in the tip that felt quiet like a nibble. I took the glove off and started to turn the finger inside out and either a wasp or hornet fell out. I don't know if it was hibernating in it, or had been put in there as an egg, but it staggered off and I didn't squish it. Take care and catch you later folks Dug.
Hi Folks. I have a video to edit about Hayter gear boxes, but after not bouncing off the floor on Saturday night, I've not been able to edit it, but here's a pic about what I found. I have a few other failed gearboxes I might disassemble to see if it's the same reason they failed.
Hi Folks. This is my new wipe rag I grabbed out my rag bag. It'll be used for checking oil levels and wiping stuff down, and general things. Let's see how it looks week by week until I decide it's to mucky to use and replace it.

Can I just say a big thank you for hitting 668 subscribers.
It was 665 for a week, so I wonder if 666 wasn't allowed to be shown.
