    Anyone know about Honda GC160 engine governor?

    I was pressure washing a deck for a customer tonight getting ready to stain it when my Honda engine quit. I got it to start back up but only at an idle. I found if I pushed on this linkage it would rev back up, the further I pushed the higher the rpm I haven’t done any YouTube searching yet but...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Cleaned this carb on my friends wood splitter for the second time today, Homfs GX690 enginejust found a good video and I guess there is 2 idle jets below this screw that I hadn’t taken out. He was running regular gas and hadn’t used the splitter in 2 years. I’m going to give it one more...

    MF GC2410 what to look for when inspecting

    I booked a rental for September 21st to 25th. 550.00 for the week plus 80.00 drop off and 80.00 pick up. This will give me an idea whether a sub compact tractor will suit my needs and will also help me understand if I need to buy one or if a periodic rental is more suitable. I did see this one...

    The more I’m thinking about it, it’s not a bad option at all. I was thinking if I owned the tractor I would want to do an annual maintenance, oil, filter, air filter at minimum. That would be near 80.00 bringing my annual cost for 5 days of work to 800.00 Usually a tractor like the one I looked...

    MF GC2410 what to look for when inspecting

    Looking through some marketplace ads and I see rentals 190.00 a day 80.00 delivery or 800.00 for 5 days, 80.00 delivery. Not a bad option either. Rent it for 5 days this year, and if I need to rent it for a day every year after, so be it.

    I wanted to get something pre emissions, would I be smart to do that? Or is that just hype?

    MF GC2410 what to look for when inspecting

    Makes you wonder how hard it would be to make it appear as 381 hours? I would have thought the days of rolling back were long gone,

    MF GC2410 what to look for when inspecting

    True, I’m pretty sure he didn’t do any maintenance, I have a feeling he bought it new, worked it a bit for the first 4 or 5 years and then moved on to something else, he had mentioned that he just had a hydraulic line replaced, probably to get it ready for sale. I’m pretty disappointed in myself...

    Well, the tractor sold, I just didn’t know what to look for to be sure everything was good, like the big components. I was the first guy to look at it, must have been the second guy bought it. Normally this tractor with say 700 to 900 hours with the backhoe, loader and tiller attachment would be...

    Ridgid tools good still?

    I can say that the LSA is real, I’ve had 2 coil roofing nailers in, no issue. And they work better then any other brand I’ve tried, Off the top of my head those would be mastercraft, Bostich, Dewalt

    Garage ceiling damaged because of rain

    I always had a contract signed before I did any work, I was a preferred contractor with 4 insurance companies. I was completely upfront with the insured, my contract basically said the home owner would pay if the insurance company didn’t. Have you found out if you have coverage yet? It’s not...
