Yippy I think i saved it from the dead, after thinking about it and taking it apart i came to the concussion that i would try and sand some of the face off about 1/16 of a in and re-clean the holes and this is what i got
and for those who wanted to see the inside of a red-max well here it is :
and like all work on things that get hot then cold all the time, I had 1 bolt break and am on the way to the garage now to fix that.
I'll let you know how it works tonight when i get it all back together.
I'm still looking for a copy of the paper work that come with a redmax so i can read about what I'm doing wrong
thanks
Steve
