Help needed please.

The steering on my wheelbarrow is a little heavy.

The (front) wheel seems to go round OK.

Tyre pressure checked. 25 psi. OK according to the handbook.

Any suggestions please? and where shall I push it?

Thanks

PS I hope I am in the right NG

That is why we are here, we are not paid by the way

"> The steering on my wheelbarrow is a little heavy."

I've experienced that before but the solution was carrying lighter load,
saved me back too.

"> The (front) wheel seems to go round OK."

Then it doesn't need oiling then but you should check anyways.

"> Tyre pressure checked. 25 psi. OK according to the handbook."

I salute a Man that reads owners manual before asking dimwit questions.

It's a wheelbarrow Man. Just use it as it is, in nay case it will build up
your upper arms.

"> Thanks"

You are welcome.

It doesn't matter. Man shall not live by bread alone.

You're right it doesn't matter - the parent saw the ng and thought it
might be about the new BarrowMini (TM) barrows.

Now's he's aware that it's not the right place, if he keeps posting -
now it matters.

It's called being polite - if you wouldn't send an
Births/Deaths/Marriages classified ad to the Properties for sale section
don't post in here about the new BarrowMini (TM).

If you don't get that - we really can't help you.

I would be offended if I was looking to get ANY insight from you.

Move along to another poster Phil, I checked my give-a-crap-o-meter and it
registered a big fat no.

I love MINIs and will continue to discuss them here regardless of whose
panties get in a bunch - lol.

Why do you stubbornly refuse to discuss new Minis in the appropriate
alt.autos.new-mini newsgroup where you would be spot-on-topic ?

...other that to annoy the crap out of most users of this group of
course. I which case I might want to point you to your local Lifes'R'Us
shop.

Because you have made it known to me that it pisses you of that is why.

I really hate quoting myself but I will make an exception in your pitiful
case

"I love MINIs and will continue to discuss them here regardless of whose

How's that? Please make my evening and tell me that it sent you into an
hypochondriac fit.

Ok, so your main goal in life is to make an annoyance of yourself.

I bet you love speaking out loud and farting when you're at the movies.
Or pushing in front of everyone at check-out queues in the supermarket.
Or peeing on your neighbours' lawns.
Or most probably not, because in real life you might get a punch on the
nose.

You must be a very interesting person. Unfortunately, I will never know
for sure because here you go in my killfile... *plonk*

No wonder! The thing weighs 1.2 tons!

> The (front) wheel seems to go round OK.

That's quite surprising. Those 17" wheels are way too large for such an
underpowered and heavy car!

> Tyre pressure checked. 25 psi. OK according to the handbook.

Have you tried inflating with bars instead of psi. Germany uses the
metric system you see.

To your nearest BMW dealer and get it fixed under warranty.

Maybe you should try alt.autos.new-mini. This newsgroup is for
discussing cooking recipes, bathroom DIY, top-posting and the original
Mini made from 1959 to 2000.

PS. Why do you call your BMW MINI a wheelbarrow ?

I don't.

PS has he gone...? Its quiet... Someone said if we don't feed them they

It's quiet because it has relatively stayed on topic here for awhile. But
of course all it takes is for the village idiot or jester to post
nonsensical ramblings and it's tits up again.

Have a nice Sunday you hear.
