Plus i'm into my fourth year of "covid long haul". Some people say"no such thing- I say bullshit. It just effects people in different ways. As for me, lack of strength, tiredness, brain fog.."where is that XX?"..right where I just looked five minutes ago! Last year I started bitching to my PC doc about how this was dragging on. He looks at me and says..."But you are 80 years old"! I said yeah and two years ago I was 78 and I was doing stuff a lot of 58 year olds could not do. Case in point I was having troubling starting my Stihl 036 saw. finally I'm searching on line and find some gal who works on saws..subject was hard starting..and she says..." now you guys who have these big Stihl and Husky saws, it takes a lot of snap to start these""🤔I ended swapping it to my son for his smaller saw. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73081-finally-some-dm-progress/page/51/#findComment-572025 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mowerman Posted 10 hours ago Author Share Posted 10 hours ago OK, I pulled out my manual and started poking around and writing down numbers. There is no damper timing indicator on this engine that I can find anybody got any ideas? Thanks, Bob and by the way, I am already losing ambition already 2:45 here Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73081-finally-some-dm-progress/page/51/#findComment-572038 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Weeks Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago Did you check on the flywheel? Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73081-finally-some-dm-progress/page/51/#findComment-572046 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted 8 hours ago Author Share Posted 8 hours ago No thanks for that. I think I heard somebody mention that in a previous post I will definitely check that. I can’t figure out why there wouldn’t be a pointer on it. Not sure if I motor manual mentions that or not but I didn’t completely comb thru it I do recall it mentioning the flywheel I’ll crawl under there in the morning and take a look Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73081-finally-some-dm-progress/page/51/#findComment-572047 Share on other sites More sharing options...
