TOAK, The Thread of All Knowledge Part XIII
Cool Lou ! What did you find?
A 2008 Honda Civic XL with 140,000 miles. Got it for $5300. Fair price in our area and its in beautiful shape. Seen similar ones will less miles in way worse shape. Very clean. Need to order some WeatherTech floor mats and trunk liner. Going to hide it at work till I get some plates on it.
Lunch time StanBy. Mowed the @#$&*()’l.,:;/=+-% grass and dirt. Recommissioned the gas powered weed eater. Tip, don’t rebuild the carb, replace it, new ones are 10 bucks on Amazon. This one only be used for the edger attachment, Kristi still has her lightweight DeWalt to use. Another tip is when you replace the carb pay attention to the gasket and make sure you haven’t flipped it and covered up the high speed air inlet. It will run until it warms up then quits if you do this.
Hey, Russ...not worth fixing those carbs. I bought a back up one for the big snow blower just to have on the shelf.
I was having trouble with the electric starter on big snowblower this year. took it apart and brushes were fused into the holders. New brushes and plate was $46. Whole new starter was $60 on Amazon.
