Jamie replied to Jamie's discussion Stihl BG86c problems

"Thank you for your replies. As it happens, i just re-alligned the ignition coil slightly just to get it slightly closer to the fly wheel as i noticed one side had a bigger gap than the other, and fingers crossed it's been ok today so far. It does…"

Hi Clive

Thanks for your comment. Interesting you've worked in this area in the past. Set up a year ago and have been more than happy with my activity over the past 12 months given that I work part time with 2 young boys.

LJ and twitter socialising already seems to be working well!

best wishes Melissa
