I do hate pointless meaningless Teams meetings that leave you reaching for your mobile phone
After all, what is £30.00 when you are gathering parts for kart no2
So my meeting had me message the seller 17miles away.
When I got there it turns out we have a ton of stuff in common, except he is a DI in the Police.
So we chatted for 45 minutes before I loaded this machine that has been stood for 10 years, outside.
DM is a brand of the Flymo company.
So when I got home, ‘I left it in the car and carried on with the day job.
Later I took it out, cleaned it up a bit and then checked the oil, well…… black tar more accurately, added some fuel after checking the sparkplug that may have seen better days too.
Added fresh oil after draining the tiny bit of gloop from the crankcase.
Of course I then tried to get it started, the tines seem to want to turn every time I pulled the rip cord……
So I removed the tines/hooky things and tried to start it.
Failed, pushed it under the carport and came indoors.
So I still beed to go back to it and take a look and a tug or,two.
We may still,end up with a boat anchor or a little runner.
