Tip of the day

If you have a Husky petrol blower, with a nut and bolt that tightens the blower to the tube, then you're probably used to the nut n bolt disappearing frequently as they vibrate off? Fed up constantly rifling through your bolts tin to find a replacement this fits? Try this ... for a couple of quid buy a quick release bolt and lever from fleabay, a bicycle seatpost part,, and fit it. Easily foes up and loosens, grips the bolt so doesn't get lost ... win :)

    Same thing on some of the etesia walk behinds. If they have handles which fold in the middle, remove and replace with lock nut otherwise it becomes very frustrating...
