Send it in and ask for offers, lawn care items are quite sought-after, it seems pretty rare. I am the editor.

Fewer filling stations in remote areas so I guess they are exempt to ensure supply of E5 is assured.

Thanks Charlie – really helpful information.

I wonder why there is an exemption for parts of Scotland?

Does anyone know a uk supplier of Thrust washer (222949) ? I have tried Briggs bits.

Not sure about two speed pulley. Standard P.T.O end one. Hopefully my attempts for a weld repair will be okay. Have not found a uk supplier of pulleys yet.

Still need to finalise and install the pulley and the 2…[Read more]

Hi all, just joined.
I own a Howard Demon Rotavator which I purchased around 7years ago. The machine came with its original paperwork, furrower and side shields. The rotavator was fitted with a BSA 120cc power unit but with further investigation found the engine was needing a full rebuild and a coil rewind. I managed to find a Clinton 494 which…[Read more]
