My old freebie Homelite chainsaw has worn the hole where the starter
rope comes out pretty badly and today when a sharp edge sliced my
almost-new starter rope in two I decided maybe I should address the
problem . I was going to fire up the TIG welder , but decided because
the piece is so light to test it and see if it's magmesium - and it is ,
vinegar bubbled vigorously when I put a few drops on it . So now it has
a brass bushing glued in there with some JB quick weld . Not too many
years ago I wouldn't have checked , and most likely would have burned my
shop to the ground when I lit up on that piece . I learned the vinegar
test here ...
