    Maybe this little beauty will take their place. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2bwevLgeRc

    Combine that and the ringless design where they use air pumped through the cylinder into a system of ports that cause a vortex to seal in the combustion gasses and no two stroke oil is needed to lubricate the moving part or bore. Except they would need to provide some oil for the bearings and spline that transfers the crank energy to the flywheel or output gear.

    Yeah our HWS died soon after we bought the place. I did the ring around and quotes were from $1100 to $1400! WTF! for a remove and refit? So I did the research, found a local plumbing supplies actually had the new version on my unit on special, usually $899, they had it for $700. So I bought it, took it home and fitted the fecker myself. Two wall support brackets, and three fittings need to be undone and then done up in total. Took me about an hour to do.

    Further to the discussion about the 2 stroke ban. Maybe this little gem will be the replacement. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v5fxoEisKxo

    eBay have now decided to ban email addresses and phone numbers in listings. Which means Im meant to manually edit all my listings. Only about 250 of them. They can go fark themselves.

    There are loopholes in the legislation and if a manufacturer has a range of equipment as long as the average meet emission standards some can be over .
    They are doing EFI now in two strokes but it comes at a cost both in purchase and extra servicing .

    I suspect they are losing revenue from correspondence outside of their control and review. Makes it very hard sometimes to find out about something without talking to the seller/buyer I reckon. I have been cleaning out my garage and getting rid of multiple items I have and stuff I have bought for some obscure reason and never used. Sone gear is so complex and unique that a discussion is really needed for people to understand what it does or how it does it - cutting this down to a classified results in zero opportunity in my view. I don't know how you stop the backyard side deals though, and its important for this advertising platform to get their just revenue - I certainly don't mind paying the clip as they have provided a wide audience - they just need to open the channels of allowable communication somehow. I do feel though for commercial vendors like you though Mark as this is a total chore.

    Wonder how long it will be before they ban the 2 stroke oil. Bloody city based government. By the time you factor in the mining, refining, manufacture, packaging, transport, storage, retail and the petrol needed to pick up and return with the new equipment, I think we would be making a way bigger carbon footprint in the end.

    Seen a figure that to me seems a joke but they reckon by improving two strokes they will save 40million litres of fuel from being burnt , bullshit I say .
    They also reckon a leaf blower used for an hour puts out the same hydrocarbons as 150 cars would in an hour , I also say bullshit to that .
