    Advice on planning?

    Apologies, thought I'd mentioned it was roughly 28m2 externally. I wasn't being rude. Just meant I have looked at these and still have many questions!

    Advice on planning?

    it will have doors at both ends, not open like a carport, I'm not sure of an exact definition for a carport.. intended use would just be garage storage - bikes, tools, freezer, lawn mower, etc. Yes I would have guttering joining another section of guttering and going the same way. I'm...

    Advice on planning?

    I have read these pages already as I say, they raise more questions than they answer! Is it an outbuilding? It's attached to the house, so it's not really a building in its own right.. is it then an extension? That is a totally different ballpark planning and regulation wise :/

    Advice on planning?

    Hi all, Where do I even start with knowing if I need permission and what regs I need to follow etc? There is a ton of information online but a lot of it relies on terms that aren't well defined, with lots of grey areas and raising more questions! I'll add as much info as I can here and...

    Mcculloch MAC 335 loses power and dies..

    thanks for all the info. I've replaced the carb, air filter, fuel filter and taken all the easy taken apart areas apart and cleaned with compressed air and carb cleaner. Didn't so much "replace the fuel filter" - when I fished the tube out, there was no filter on it and it had a split in it. I...

    Mcculloch MAC 335 loses power and dies..

    So I had a tinker this morning, it started and idled for a while and started sounded a bit spluttery though, I increased the idle screw so it idled a bit quicker hoping this would help. It didn't - after idling for a while it slowed down and stopped. I did get the chain moving properly and it...

    Mcculloch MAC 335 loses power and dies..

    I emptied this out when I got it and refilled it with fresh stuff. It seems to be coming out more than ok (I just had a small puddle after starting it and letting it idle on the floor for a while :/) Not sure what you mean about the bar being adjusted properly - the chain is at what I feel is...

    Mcculloch MAC 335 loses power and dies..

    Oh, ok, my bad. I realised I had the chain brake on - thats the correct way to start from what I've read - Should I remove it immediately after starting? I read somewhere 40:1 but somewhere else 50:1 - I went for 50:1 - I'll add a bit more to get it to 40:1. Thanks

    Mcculloch MAC 335 loses power and dies..

    I mixed 50:1 (400ml petrol to 8ml oil) as stated on the bottle and in the manual. The air filter looked pretty clean I emptied out the fuel before I used it and filled it with fresh - didn't see anything in it I haven't seen a fuel filter, but I'm assuming there is one somewhere? I know it'll be...

    Mcculloch MAC 335 loses power and dies..

    I've recently bought a Mccullock MAC 335 second hand, the guy showed me it working so I thought it was ok and it has been ok.. Once I get it going (which can take a while) its fine for ages. I've cut some large bushes to pieces, all is well.. The first time I've used it, I turned it off for a...
