Great to see another tinkering video Martin. I’ve been watching this channel since you did up the Mini for Jimmy and while I also enjoy your Butlers Empire channel, Retrorestore is my favourite, as I also love messing with cars and stuff. I would love to see regular content on here again, but I understand that you’re busy with your Butlers Empire channel. Keep putting out the great tinkering videos, whenever you can find the time 👍

Good luck finding fluorescent tubes these days, they've recently been banned in the UK as of the end of 2023. I've tried the LED replacement tubes, but really a new fitting works best.

That trick with carb off doesn't work too well with a chain saw I did it and smashed the piston
@retrorestore10 ай бұрын
That shouldn't have anything to do with the carb being off. You shouldn't run a 2 stroke without an exhaust as it will affect the back pressure but you can do this just to see if it fires up.

Hello, I wonder if you can help me please. I have a Wangye Eivissa 2 125cc scooter year 2022. I'm looking for a OBD2 scanner for Chinese motorcycles. I have contacted Wangye in China who manufacture the bike. Unfortunately they won't advise me on a suitable OBD2 scanner for Chinese motorcycles. Would it be possible for you to check it out and advise me. Cheers

Just do a Google search for obd2 scanners for bikes bud.
