      I see what you mean. I’ll double check the upper washer.

      Mass Air Flow sensor went out while test driving it. Installed one from another one of my rigs. Running once again.

      Fuel tank was a bit rusty but the fuel pickup tube fell off. Installed a new fuel tank, fuel pump and fuel sending unit.

      Steering clutch plates arrived. Waiting on the Pressure Plate measurement gauge. Once that arrives I can start putting it back together.

      I got more osage than I know what to do with. It's my nemesis. I hate dealing with it, but love burning it, when the temps dip or i need a long burn. Native Americans Indians it is supposed to be sacred. It's the hardest and hottest wood...

      Good info guys. My woods are oak of various types and hickory. The ash trees have almost all been killed by ash borer beetle. I've never tried using oak for smoking, just the hickory. I save the dead ash for the fireplace, it burns quick and has...

      Got up this morning to this page open on my iPad … for those interested. frankly, I still gotta cut, carry and stack it and that warms me up easily no matter which oak it is https://treejourney.com/why-white-oak-is-better-firewood-than-red-oak/

      We have a lot of Live Oak (and Red Oak) on our place. It does burn hot and long; I tend to save it for my smoker. Very dense wood.

      I think the Oaks in the Central Valley have a wide range of BTU output. The Valley Oak is also called a Swamp Oak. It grows where there is an abundance of water. When green, it cuts like white oak. There is so much moisture in the wood that...

      A limb split off a Live Oak. I was able to brush it out for a habitat pile and process the tree for firewood. It was over a 7’ drop off into a creek so I had to pull the log so it didn’t fall in the creek. I cannot believe the heat that Live...

      well my son cut some up for firewood so hopefully I can post this here. He is Cutting the bigger stuff into full dimension 2x6 on the mill.

      I really like my MS 400. Light enough to process the entire tree and powerful enough to easily rip the blocks down to “fit in the stove” size. The sawdust “noodles” go in the neighbors chicken coop.

      Wife gave me a Stihl MS 400 CM for Christmas. I tried it today on a 30" water oak that had blown down a few months back. Absolutely ridiculous how well that saw cuts.

      New pressure plate arrived. Vendor forgot to put the clutch discs in the box before he shipped it.

      Some of the linkage was not moving the way it should. The steering lever should snap back under spring tension. Removed everything and cleaned/polished it and reassembled. Works like it should
