I use the Stihl branded Castrol Stuff...it's designed for 50:1 use...the old Victa mowers love it :)
I pretty much use the Stihl brand across the board...I get looked after at the local Stihl authorized dealer...although I don't get my servicing done there :) I'm about to have a look at some second-hand Honda Mowers that are being sold via tender through the ANU...might get a couple if they are only $200-$300. Good seconhand mowers are all I use...Can't see the value in buying new. In fact, the last 2 mowers I've scored from the side of the road...both just needed a plug. Lol's at people these days.
Another friend of mine recently posted on his FB status that he'd seen his 1st 'Flat Panel' TV on the Side of the road the other day...consumerism much.

My next ride

I think I will be upgrading my mower next year to a wider deck, self propelled, mulcher. And If I can afford a new whipper snipper, I'll be happy. This one vibrates too much, my hands go numb for a day after if im not careful!

Watch that...not good for you having the numb hands. (although...hello STRANGER)
I only get that from chainsaw sessions...which I don't do a lot of thankfully.
My circulation leaves quit a bit to be desired anyway...damn you CO

Adam, drive a Gen4, they have no soul...

Yeah, I know. I That's why I try and break it up, do the front one arvo, the back another. But then I find I am constantly mowing!

Pet store mission :) Chook 'mash' and a new frisbee required. Kong down...we have a kong down.
I actually have no idea when he (Elvis) lost it? Silly dog sometimes holds his toys in his mouth then hangs his head out the car window...sometimes, they don't come back in...

@Adam - I don't see what the issue with spring compressors are? I mean if you use them correctly and take all precautions, they're fine, no?

If you are very careful they can be ok... still not enough for me to be around when they are being used though. Dad has been in a work shop when someone has used them and they have flown off, very very dangerous when that happens. There is a rule in his workshop that they are not allowed to be used, not worth the risk.

I always wrap a sheet or a jumper over them.

Not sure how much it would help. But better than none!

I've seen them on a Gen IV about three minutes away from my house. I'll try and get a pic next time to give you an idea of how they'll look. It looks alright.

That would be excellent, thanks!

drive a Gen4, they have no soul...

Would suit me than :P haha... (the whole Ranga's have no soul thing)

I like to think of it as borrowing someone's car and driving it better than them.

His kids, as in your cousins?

Ha ha, yeah. I didn't wanna say "my uncle and his kids (my cousins)" cause it looks weird. And if I said uncle and cousins, it could mean another family in my family. It's only the one family that's into AFL. Everyone else is soccer or rugby.


That would be excellent, thanks!

I'll be passing by it again in the next 30 minutes on the way to soccer so I can get the pic for ya man.


Just finished cleaning my engine bay and interior. Car is looking Posted Image'ing schmick as. LOVE IT! Now a shower, off to my soccer trials and then back home to relax. I've had quite a productive day today. :)

Wanting to buy/looking for: single genuine STi rim, genuine STi front lip, Corazon or Zero/Sports grille and another OEM grille

Can you hook a brother up? Please contact me now. I have cash ready.
