    031 AV Fuel Problem

    I disassembled the carb, blew it out and re-assembled again just in case it was blockage of some sort. No luck. As for broken or worn ring, I don't have a compression tester, but having a hard plastic rather than rubber recoil handle, this feels like it has the compression of a much bigger...

    031 AV Fuel Problem

    I just rebuilt the carb (WA 2A) on an 031AV; also replaced impulse line, filter, and the flushed gas tank. It was running poorly and the carb had gone a long time since the last rebuild. After the rebuild, it starts hard, runs for a few seconds and stalls as it spits fuel into the case that...

    Looking for a lightweight limb saw

    Great little limber I bought a MS 180 c last weekend for limbing. I stuck with the stock chain and 14" bar to keep the weight down and RPMs up. I ran 2 tanks of gas through it cutting through a tangle of ice damaged cherry trees that came down last winter. They were broken off about...

    new to the site and not sure what saw I need

    Nice Choice Congrats on not pinching pennies and wasting dollars. It sounds like you have a decent Husky dealer.:cheers: You should love that saw. Keep in mind it will take a while to break in, and don't hesitate to have it checked out during or after that break-in period of about 10 tanks...

    new to the site and not sure what saw I need

    I've run the 346XP and was impressed at the cutting speed. I was less impressed with my friend's MS 260 which was using full 3/8 pitch chain on a 20" bar. Bad match up on this 3HP saw. I think you're in the right neighborhood: pro-saws from top manufacturers. I've been wanting that...

    new to the site and not sure what saw I need

    You can't not afford a great saw If you can afford an OWB, you can can afford a good saw. A.S.members talked me into getting a Stihl MS361 almost 3 years ago to replace a good older design Poulan 65 pro saw. It was more than I wanted to pay bit was a great decision. Here's that thread...

    Chap Repairs

    The response was about what I figured: Since safety is the issue, do it right and buy new ones :agree2: Thanks to all- interesting ,time to go chap shopping.

    Chap Repairs

    I just paid the careless tax. I leaned against a log splitter muffler and melted a few layers of the knee of my safety chaps. Does anyone out there know of a place that repairs chaps? Or have a piece of a chap that had likewise sacrificed itself ...hopefully for something more honorable...

    Just picked up a Clean Homelite Super XL Automatic

    Chain saw lady, I cut with it it today. It runs great, still stinks of dead gas though. I'll pass on the cover at the moment, thanks. I mentioned this find to someone yesterday, and that it was missing an oil cap. He offered to give me another saw, supposedly identical. I'll look into...

    Just picked up a Clean Homelite Super XL Automatic

    The second digit is an O rather than a zero. As for my Dawgs being upside down, please don't let the word get out on that or I'lll never earn a rep. The original owner was pretty short, he may have done that to buck logs from the bottom up. :confused: Thanks for the input guys, as usual...

    Just picked up a Clean Homelite Super XL Automatic

    Hi guys, I’ve attached some pictures of a Homelite Super XL Automatic I picked up from a neighbor yesterday. It hasn't run for years. It was his deceased dad’s and my neighbor thought it was junk. After dumping the gas and flushing the tank out, I gassed it up primed it and after about 8...

    New clutch ID smaller and chain won't stop

    Thanks Grand dog. I was coming up empty surfing for these springs. I ordered them. A.S. comes through again.!! Lawnmowertech37 I'll keep you in mind.

    New clutch ID smaller and chain won't stop

    I removed the springs and they were worn on both ends and the middle. It allowed the shoes to sit farther out with the engine off, which required less travel to contact the drum when running. I reversed them and it idles ok w/o chain travel but it's close. They are thinner where they contact...

    New clutch ID smaller and chain won't stop

    I purchased a replacement clutch drum for my old Poulan Super 25. It is Oregan part 28006 and after double checking with sales @ Baileys, it is the correct one for the saw. With the saw idling correctly the chain wont stop moving. Has anyone run across something like this before? The...

    I'll be banned soon....

    Great Service from Stihl Dealer On Saturday I brought my 361 to a newer Stihl dealer that is closer than the one I bought my saw from, (not open on Saturdays) or the one bought my trimmer from, which is further away. I wanted a carb limit cap tool and some caps. He treated me like I was...
