I just wanted some general advice on my 372 XP. I lost several chainsaws in a fire, the biggest being a 455. With the insurance money, and not needing multiple saws I replaced my 445 (which I really liked) and since I grew up with an Homelite XL923 24in bar, I wanted a "big saw" so, after...

I was wondering how much we were saving by burning wood in our new home, and I got a chance to find out. The stat are: about 3200 square feet, walk out basement, geo-thermal loop system, two FPX 36 fireplaces, 2X6 walls with blown-in insulation, on 17 foot vaulted ceiling, Pella windows (lots of...

I realize most people do alot more work on saws than I do, but I stopped at Baily's in Woodland, CA. to get some stuff. (Maybe this will save some guys from ruining a flywheel.) One thing was a clutch removal tool for my 445. The fellow behind the counter, and like the other Baily's staff I've...

I'm taking a computer break from cutting so I figured I'd ask a question. I have a new 445 and have run about 30 or 40 tanks of gas in the saw. I'm cutting green cherry and locust. The blade is sharp and the saw cuts just fine. I enjoy running it. Got it from Baily's. The oiler is putting out...

I have a Husky 455 in April of 09, and a dealer that isn't too good, so I gave up on him. I found a way to make a tool to adjust the hi/lo on the carb. This has been the only thing the saw has needed but due to temp/weather changes it's nice to be able to tweak it for the conditions. I heard...

I don't remember if I posted this, as it's been a couple of months, but pardon me if I did. I had a Husky 55 go lean on me and I rebuilt it and it works better than new, but before I did that I bought a 455. I have a dealer who lacks customer satisfaction skills so I had to do the final saw carb...

I've had a Husky 36 for about 17 years. It's developed problems and I need a saw this size to fill the voild between the Husky 455 Rancher and the rebuilt 55 and the little Stihl 009L I have. I've ruled out Stihl because the dealer near me had problems and the parts are expensive--like 19.00 for...

I wanted to post this because after it happened all I could do is swear and say "Stupid is as stupid does." And "You can't fix stupid." I cut a dead elm tree down for some quick wood at the end of the day of cutting bigger stuff. The tree was about 10 inches down to small branches. I cut it...

I figured this would make a good Christmas story and be related to fireplaces. Most every year I make English suet pudding in my grandmothers Mary Dunbar cooker "The Waterless Steamer" This is the same desert that would have been made by Bob Cratehet's wife in the movie "Scrooge" It has to be...

I thought I'd do some advising to those of you who don't know and might move to Missouri (and other areas that have them) about the locust trees I "met" moving here from California and we didn't have these weeds in PA., where I grew up. We have these trees (weeds) called honey locusts or...

I was hoping I could get some techical information regarding my Husqvarna 455 purchased in April 2009 in Missouri. I've rebuilt my 55, and maintained my 36 and Sthil 009l for years and I worked for Kawasaki/Suzuki back in the early 80's, so I know a little about saws and two strokes but I'm not...
