Damn thing, pulling on the air cleaner lid and it popped off and jambed my thumb on the edge of the engine cover. Got me right up across the base of my thumbnail, thats the cuticle isnt it? Its gone a bit black.
Air cleaner is a bit past it.



These the clips???



Leaf guard looks OK. Ya wont know for sure untill you take the starter off.

Turns over but its tight. The starter recoils slowly.

Pulled the cap off the fuel tank, its pretty ordinary in there, Stinkin bad big time.

Thanks again.[Censored] happy about the axle clips being there.Not to happy to hear about your finger though.Also happy about the leaf guard I need more of them still.

Did you feel the thumb from there???

Hurt like hell for 2 days, then for the past three the white bit at the top of my nail has slowly gone black. Hmmm not sure what its gunna do. At least its not hurting any more.

But you get that. Damn thing got me good.

Actually yes I did feel the pain,but I don't think it was in my thumb.It went straight to my two broken teeth.Can't wait for tomorrow I have the [Censored] things taken out.
