I spend about as much time doing crap like this as on the tractors. Trying to get a pto shaft off the gearbox spline today. Been at it about half the day and dont think I am one step closer

I feel your pain. Went to spray plots today. Filled tank with 100 gallons of water and 2.5 gallons of generic Glyphosate. Started spraying and pressure dropped steadily until it basically quit. Figured the filter screen was clogged. Sure enough, I had left about 5 gallons of mix in the tank for a couple of weeks. Must have grown something, because the whole tank was full of slimy crap. Had to dump all 100 gallons, clean tank, clean filter screen, and start over from scratch. Won't make that mistake again!

Ive been trying for 3 weeks to cut some cedar logs and can't get my chainsaw to stay running. It will start and idle bit when you hit the trigger it dies.
Took it to the shop after my second weekend wasted.
Dude said he had it running so I headed to the hills this morning. Pulled the saw out and it fired right up and idled from my tailgaye over to the tree I was going to cut and as soon as I hit the trigger it died.
Guess Ill be buying a new saw.

Buy a Stihl this time. And not one of those NancyMan FarmBoss, get a real commercial grade saw like a RealMan

To me the Huskys are easier to keep running and more comfortable. They also hold up to abuse better like cleaning up brush and weeds and cutting little limbs, hitting dirt or rocks, throwing chains and all the other crap you encounter if you use it alot around a farm. If you're a logger and your saw is buried in big wood all day, every day, then Stihl is a better saw.

Well I broke in the new saw this afternoon.

Had a big red oak that blew down in a storm this spring and a big post oak that got hit by lighting last summer.

Cut down the postoak and drug it to the house.
Cut the red oak into 4 logs and drug em to the house.
Took a break and then cut up the 2 trees.
3 hrs of hard work.
Now i got to split this crap.
