    562xp re-released!

    since this is the latest thread on the 555/562 and I've been away for awhile, had a couple of questions: 1. Is the 555 availiable, since I didn't see it on husky's website? I assumed it is, but wasn't for sure. 2. What was the recall about and which saw did it affect? Sorry if this...

    One year with an MS 391

    just ran through the second tank of fuel on mine. So far, I'm pleased. Seems more fuel efficient than the 039 I've ran before it and maybe a second or two behind the 046 as far as speed is concerned. I assume it will close the gap up some as it gets broken-in. Anti-vibe setup is pretty sweet too.

    Who makes this saw

    See if he would be willing to meet halfway. If not, then I wouldn't mess with it. At least that way, he would be more willing to deal with you on it. I've learned the hard way if you drive very far and the seller knows it, they won't budge much on the asking price, if any.

    Indiansprings would know for sure, but I'm 95% sure it is. Offer him $200, looks like a good deal.

    New MS 391 air filter problem

    Didn't know they had a pre-filter for it, but it looks like it is basically the same filter, minus the tabs that would hold the pre-filter on then. Good to know.

    New MS 391 air filter problem

    doesn't the 391 have the same filter setup as the 362? I got a new 391 for christmas and from the pics I've seen on here of the 362, it looks the same to me. To the original poster, I ran one tank of fuel so far through mine and yes after I pulled my filter off, there was a light dusting on...

    260 and 440 deal

    If the 440 is in good shape, I would get that and then see if he'll sell you a new 261. Sounds like the 260/261 would be the saw you would reach for the most, and 15 cords is crap load of wood to be packing around a saw that is too big for what you are doing. The guys that have the 261 say its...

    why all the short bars on saws in this site ?

    When the in-laws and I would cut, the 046 w/ the 25" bar would basically just set because it felt like you were luggin around a whole lot of saw. We would use the 029, 039 and the 021 to do most of the work. Got a 20" bar for the 046 and man what a difference. Its now pretty much my go-to saw...

    Need work saw w/ readily available parts

    If you're a newbie to the chainsaw world and/or chainsaws in general, I would recommend buying a new saw so you have a warranty to fall back on in case something happens. Then, as time goes along, keep an eye out for a nice used one and use it has a back-up. Some other good choices would be...

    nobody carries any winter blend bar oil around here

    I just run the regular stuff from stihl (orange bottle). I'll cut it down with diesel if it gets too cold. Tried the low-temp stuff one time and I had oil everywhere, just seemed a little too thin for me. Ended up mixing it with the regular stuff to get rid of it. My dealer is always tryin to...

    Should I upgrade my saw?

    going from an 029 to a 441 will be like going from a v-6 camaro to a z06 corvette. Yeah the 029 is adaquate, but the 441 with an 18 or 20 in. bar will flat out scream. If you have the means, do the upgrade. I cut a lot of hedge and black locust, so I would say the more power the better being...

    Is an MS310 worth rebuilding?

    There's been talk of Baileys coming out with shortblock replacements for them soon. As for the muffler and the air cleaner cover, you might be able to score something used in the trading post.

    110 leaded racing gas

    Just curious as to what part of this statement was so insulting to you, sachsmo? I don't know Brad personally, never asked him a question, and he's never responded to any of my threads or posts (the few that I've made) so don't think I'm associated with him in any way, but you're really...

    Nice Runnin' 021 or a dog 029 trade-in for $125?

    021s serve their purpose for sure. The one I use has a fixed jet high side:(. If its clean, it would be worth $120 if that's a void you need to fill. Cant think of any problems that I've had with it.
