Price drop, thread bump.

Thanks for your interest everyone, this saw bundle is now SOLD. I bought all this gear a few years ago before a neck surgery but never recovered enough to use it. Everything is new, not a drop of oil or gas have ever been added to the chainsaw. Local sales preferred. I'm in Stockbridge...

That's good to hear. If the guy still has it I'll pick it up. Looks like such a handy little trimming/limbing saw to pair with my 562XP.

I'm considering a used 011 AV EQ and wonder what the vibes are like. Is it a real vibrator compared to newer spring AV saws?

My dad burned up his 066 by running outboard 2-cycle oil; he didn't even get half way through the bottle before the piston/cylinder were scorched. Outboard engines run at far cooler temps than air-cooled chainsaws so outboard oil contains a different (cheaper) additive package which is...

I've been researching the 562XP for months so I've got all this stuff bookmarked. Even have a new one on the way! Mweba's video: Definitive thread.

No problem.

PM sent, but I'll also ask the questions here: Pics? Date of manufacture? (first 6 digits of serial number)

I've searched in the past and could never find info on carcinogenic materials used to manufacture catalytic mufflers, so I suspect the carcinogens are combustion products that collect in the catalytic matrix. In the high temperatures and pressures of combustion, the benzene in gasoline reacts...

Neal does some fine work, he's just not as much of a showman like some others here. I think he likes his work to do the talking.

Stihl's helmet system is sweet. I've also been looking at the Rockman systems, they look like they would hold up well. I bought a Husqvarna helmet system but took it back, it seemed like it would fall apart if I looked at it too hard.

Might be good for roots...

If the government subsidy runs out January 1, that means the corporate ag lobby will order congress to convene a special session to renew the subsidy, LOL! Anyone know of any reputable independent tests of the enzymatic gas treatments for EtOH gas? I figure any quality two-stroke oil mix...

Wait until the 310 dies, then buy a new Husqvarna 655.

I'm cutting pretty much the same stuff as the original poster, not so much in the bigger range, but if my spine wasn't giving me sh!t, I'd get myself either MS441 M-Tronic or a Husqvarna 576XP Autotune. The 660 is fun until the weight and vibes start wearing you down, so my 066 pretty much...

It USED to work on eBay! A few weeks ago I thought I had a used Husvarna for $9.99 plus shipping, but it finally went for a normal eBay price. Word is out and mispellings don't matter so much anymore.

That stupid hole is a strike against Oregon/Husqvarna bars. At some point, sprocket bearing design advanced, Stihl removed the grease hole, and Oregon used the hole to generate profits. Some guys NEED to constantly grease and oil everything, Oregon has them, and also the guys who naively...

Mtngun nailed it. If your X axis doesn't represent anything, then your data needs to be presented in some other way if you want others to interpret it. It would also help if you gave the equations you're using. I've never found - and I have searched extensively - a single report on AS or...

LOL, if even half the stuff he's claiming is true, Husqvarna should have hired him to design their saws 20 years ago. I love the tuned expansion chamber muffler that looks like a 346 XP muffler with a couple pipes welded on. And the material he wraps on the handle that reduces vibes by 80%...

A new Tillotson carb for that saw runs around 60-75 bucks. I'd pull the carb apart again and give it a good cleaning. You didn't say if you checked the screen, check if you haven't, after 25 years they tend to load up! The shop probably already checked the impulse line, at least for $34...
