It fact I purchased it on the 10/04/93

Yes it is a 4 stroke and it is over ten years old

I blamed the petrol because the manual stated "regular" petrol and I assumed "non leaded" would be a problem.

I have a petrol driven motor mower that runs on "regular" grade petrol. Without me knowing the last twice when my wife has had the mower petrol can filled she has used "unleaded" (This over two years or more) Just recently my mower had become more and more difficult to start and today when I...

I thank you for your thoughts 'RF Lighting' and whilst I did check the fuse I did not go further. After reading your your comments I did then start checking the power to the input side switch and then the output but not the windings - not too sure what to expect. I have a Fluke 75 which is fine...

Slightly off "home electrics" I know, but someone may be able to help. I have a bench grinder with two wheels. It packed up recently and as there cannot be too many reasons for the failure I thought I would start with the 'start up' capacitor. It's a 2.5 micro farad, 450VAC housed in a...

My PC had virtually the same symptoms including the chkdsk bit: "for a short while now this pc decides to reboot all by itself, no warning, it just reboots. or sometimes when the screen saver is on it will just freeze (screen saver i am using is my picture show) or on the rare...

I notice that "Barbusa" never posted as to how the problem he had was resolved. People take the trouble to offer advice and knowing if it worked or not only adds to the collective knowledge but is a vote of thanks to those posting. The original post was relevant to me as my computer recently...

I use something called "MP3WAV Converter" but there is a small charge for the software but it's so easy to use. You will find it at www.topshareware.net/mp3wav/

Thanks John -Interesting re you comment about Roxio. I cnverted my digital camcorder data to DVD using Roxio. When I tried to read the raw digital data using Studio 9, no joy.

SVP.co.uk is a site that sells computer products. I see that they are selling audio CD-R's for use in a HI Fi system for 42p ea (in a jewel case) They also sell tub's of CD-R's (100 a tub) for between say £9 and £15 which is good value. However has anyone experience of using this type of...

Thanks empip - that was the answer. Don't know how I missed such a basic step.

I recently loaded the mini Bill Oddie icon from the BBC's Springwatch web site and at the same time I think loaded the Yahoo toolbar. (My fault for not watching the small print properly) How can I remove it? I have tried turning it off via Internet Explorer, View and toolbars. Firstly...

I agree with 'Skibum' go for a Zonelab package. I had numerous problems with Norton, particularly with the fire wall, so much so that I dumped it half way through the subscription period and installed the free Zonelab firewall instead, which has worked without any problems at all. On my...

The disc you are trying to convert is presumably a CD that contains moving pictures and sound i.e. a VCD. I thought VCD disc's used a compression standard called MPEG to store video and audio. It maybe worth checking the internet out via Google for WMV to MPEG file conversion software.

I can not play a wmv file on wmp 10 ________________________ moderator please note 17 which is here your post has been split

I need to cut a piece of marble which is 12 inches long and about 1/2 inch thick. It has been glued to the kitchen top for use as a chopping board. I need to cut it as it gets in the way of a replacement cooker. Any ideas as to what is the best method to use. An angle grinder may make a lot of...

I found a really good site at netaway.com, which offer "local" dialing numbers for most places in the world for a fixed payment. - dead cheap

I had a very similar problem to you. I had installed three sets of three lights in the kitchen and upon switch on, lighting circuit failed. Found one bulb had gone; replaced that and all was fine. A bulb has since blown but no fuse was blown this time.

Having delved into other areas of this site I have found the answers I need
