Well now on my bucket truck I have power to the coil again and the injectors are working but it still won't start. All I did was pull and check fuses and relays. Idk if it's some stupid sensor or the computer that's screwed. Fml

You check the fuel pump (in tank)?

Hopefully between this truck and the mini, it the end of **** breaking for a little

Gratuitous equipment shots for the day. Wish the stumper was mine, but not complaining at $250 for this maple. Probably close to fifteen years me and this guy have been doing business.

I hate grinding stumps, I wish we had a good dependable/reasonable guy that would do ours.

That's a big a$$ stump, how long did it take you?

 

[luckydad]

That's my father grinding, I think maybe 30-45 mins counting pulling the chips away with the tractor periodically.

That's a 880 with a 36" bar on the stump for reference.

It never ends, Never. This month for me it's Battery in chipper, F350 and Dump truck. That;s like $400 in battery;s and i haven't started fixing the broke stuff yet like the v10 engine in my dodge 3500 that the machine shop said would be $2400.00 for the bottom end machine work and parts.

 

[2treeornot2tree]

Well i wish I was only at $2800. I am like at $5k in repairs in the last week or so.

 

[Affordabletree]

Ya gotta spend the money to make the money. Just think how long you got to work with the equipment before you had to do all of the repairs.
The steering gear on my chip truck just went out and off ebay it is $550 for a new one. Through the dealer it would cost me $1600. I can even have it rebuilt but the truck would be down for a month and I cant have that.

You need to get rid of those rakes, they suck! Get some of the maintainer rakes. One stroke of the maintainer is like four of those, and they last a long time

 

[treeclimber101]

MDS is perfect .... The rakes are perfect .... Jus know it's all perfect

 

[treebilly]

I know it's not the same chipper but lubing the slide rails on our 1800 really makes a difference. There is also some sort of pressure sensor that went bad once that had it acting up.
