    Makita EA5000PREL starter

    I really like this saw but really despise the spring assisted starter. Is there a replacement starter that doesn't have the spring assist ? Any help would be appreciated.

    I own the Mastermind ported 610 and it did go well. Misinformation seems to be the norm around here lately.

    I am going to visit my brother and do a little deer hunting while in Oklahoma next week. I am taking 4, 5 gallon gas cans to bring back to Commiefornia some E-free gasoline. Beats $70 for 5 gallons VP small engine fuel.

    Whoaa.....Something's wrong???!!

    They modified the Tru-Fuel cans awhile back. They took out the stupid plastic X that the old can had and are now straight through. I just bought 8 cases from Home Depot online when they were on sale for $19.99 a case. They are all the same. The can that was supposed to be 50-1 but had straight...

    Not on the Tru-Fuel cans.

    There isn't one on the new cans.

    Whoaa.....Something's wrong???!!

    Just a thought. If you buy individual cans of fuel in a store like Lowes or HD you could be buying cans that were returned. Unscrupulous jerkoffs can buy the fuel, switch it out and the unsuspecting customer would never know until it was too late. I had a quart of Tru-Fuel 50-1 that was...

    Trimmers

    I bought a Honda HHT 35 and couldn't be more happy. True 4 stroke engine that sips fuel. Lots of torque. Starts easily and is very quiet. Changed to .105 Stihl cutting string and it works really well. The only criticism is that it is kind of heavy. I only use it about 15 to 20 minutes a...

    Back In The Shop......Now What's On Your Bench????

    My new Husqvarna 550 is on my bench. It was delivered on Monday evening. Spent some time figuring out how to reset the chain brake. Started her up and there was the slight hesitation off idle. Found Snellings comments about the adjustment on the air bleed screw. Took the carburetor off and...

    Husqvarna 550XP part numbers

    I just bought a Husqvarna 550 XP online. It is supposed to have a 16" bar. The part # is 9666482-01. I looked on Husqvarna's website and that exact part number is not listed. Just trying to figure out what exactly is coming next week. Thanks in advance.

    STOCK 562XP Vs Ported 562XP

    I guess it depends what your dial in number is.

    STOCK 562XP Vs Ported 562XP

    It was all about the fun. Just a couple of friends cutting wood with new saws. This wasn't ment to be a competition. Not even close to that. This was the first time my stock saw was even started ! I never said or even insinuated my stock saw was faster. I know better. It was all in fun. Maybe...

    STOCK 562XP Vs Ported 562XP

    Funny thing about the Total bar. It's stamped .050/.058. These chains were .050. The Stihl bar is stamped .050.

    STOCK 562XP Vs Ported 562XP

    The chains were bought at the same time and came off the same spool. I think that meets the criteria for "exact".

    STOCK 562XP Vs Ported 562XP

    Yes, the chains were the same. Both were Stihl 3/8 RSC 72 DL. The stock saw is mine. I am in the process of Muffler Modding mine. There will be more video with the MM'd saw vs the ported MM'd saw probably this week. There is a 20" oak limb just waiting for this.

    Husqvarna 562 Kicks azzzzzzzz

    A couple of days ago, a friend of mine and myself broke in a couple of new 562's . Mine is box stock with a 20" Stihl bar and RSC chain, and his is ported and sports a 20" Total bar with the same Stihl RSC chain. Both saws were run with VP 94 octane fuel and Bel Ray H1R @40-1 ratio and the...
