    MS362 carb'd converted to HD2

    Thanks for detailed information everything was spot on and made it easy. I was one of those guys that was anal about it and wanted it to be like it came off the assembly line. This is what I ran into. The CM lid is a little narrower than the original, shaved about a 1/16 of an inch off and it...

    034av idles but wont rev... 2nd post right forum..my bad.

    Again thanks for replying and sorry for not being as detailed for what I have done. When I say I rebuilt the carb it got everything including the removal of welch plug. I litteraly put a small strand of wire thru each hole to ensure no blockage, compressed air blown thru each port with air...

    034av idles but wont rev... 2nd post right forum..my bad.

    Thanks,, already tried.. I have started from 1 turn out from bottom to almost 3.5 to 4 back to bottom on H in 1/8 turn increments. I do not know a lot about the coils or leak testing one. I have never come across those issues, 99% of what I do is fuel related.

    034av idles but wont rev... 2nd post right forum..my bad.

    Hello all, I'am working on an STIHL 034av of a friends. I initialy got it not running at all and in poor condition ( ie dirty, wrong bar & chain, missing bolts) I adjusted the low screw and got it to idle. Pulled muffler & piston looked great, not knowing any history of it off to the store I go...

    Transaction with AS member gone bad

    Post #12 by meatsaw.. "Well the thing is that I have no idea whether or not they were shipped. He won't reply to any emails. He uses an iPhone too, so I know its not just a matter of being "away from home." If I knew they were shipped no big deal. Or if he'd just reply. Keep me informed. But 2...

    Stack effect???

    :agree2: I had the same problem, Except I have a s.s. insulated chimney thru a wall and up the side of the house. I always have a window open (2 to 3 inches) and now the only time I have an issue is on warmer days and a small or smoldering fire. When I need to take a chill out of house in early...

    Super Splitter Question

    In the vid I posted that guy says he made some modifications. Extra fly wheel being (in my mind) the most significant. Hope it works out for you, I am working on one now for a 27 ton hyd.

    Stihl MS180 clutch question

    Impact, OUCH!! sometimes its needed. Try, plug out, fill cyclinder with some rope and gently take off first. Should be reverse thread...

    One area where I definitely prefer Husky over Stihl

    I agree, most of the time when this happens to me its because I did something to avoid the dirt or the bar had got somthing jammed in it from cuting so low the ground.

    Comments on our wood heat by our neighbors.......

    I have neighbors on the back side of my house. We leave some windows open almost year round. My neighbors ask the other day "Is your windows open on purpose, or are they broke??" Nope they are fine, heating with wood is not completly free but it sure beats outragous electric/fuel oil...

    Oh yes, another fuel topic...

    I dont know about the husky oil having stabilizer I dont use it. Should say on the bottle if it does. Some other options to think about is 50 fuel if you can find it. It is pricey but getting more popular. Around here it is $5.00 a Qt...This stuff has no ethanol, extened shelf life,89 octane and...

    Oh yes, another fuel topic...

    If you notice an improvement in performance in the higher octain. Run it!! Its not going to hurt anything. I beleive manufactures say their saws run on 89 or what ever to appeal to a buyer thinking they dont have to run the expensive fuel. That doesnt mean it won't do better running on higher or...

    yes!! The 260 does not. The 260 pro does.. That all my dealer had at the time, I spoke to soon earlier about the 261. I honestly never laid eyes on one off those.
