G’day fxxxrr, g’day all,

Excellent!

Nothing quite beats the satisfaction of a first start! Doesn’t seem to matter what type of machine, the feeling is always the same- perhaps feels best the older the machine and the longer it has sat without being run.

Yup, as Nath says it sounds like something funky has been done with the drive system. But sorting that sort of thing out is just part of the fun! smile

Cheers,
