    New Husky 3120XP is hard to start, any Ideas?

    Of the couple 3120's I have owned, the choke and high throttle lock have been independent. Always have to manually set the high idle. Take it back to the dealer. Or maybe try richening up the low needle if the plug isn't wet from pulling? Not sure if that would help.

    I want to experience kickback

    It was about 20 years ago on the east side of the state. He is fine now, just some "character building" scars.

    I want to experience kickback

    A landscaper I know hit a piece of metal in a landscaping timber. The saw kicked back and skidded across his face before digging into his neck. Almost killed him. A helmet probably would have helped him out.

    Sold Husqvarna 288xp

    So a fellow member asked what the squish was, while checking it, the solder fell in the spark plug hole. I took the cylinder off to get it out. It now has a base gasket. The squish was .018ish without a gasket. It was good I took the cylinder off, since I had forgotten that the cylinder had...

    Sold Husqvarna 288xp

    This was basically turning into a shelf queen, so it is time to sell it. This was supposed to be my back up milling saw and big wood bucking saw, but the 3120 never went down, so it didn't get used much. Then I put together a 394 for big wood that isn't as pretty, so it has gotten all the use I...

    Stihl MS 362 Carburator Removal

    It's been a while since I took the carb off of a 362, but it seems like it required taking apart the handle to get the throttle rod out to pull the carb.

    372xp idle problem

    I had to switch out a red one because it was too stiff. It wouldn't bend enough to fit and let the cable move freely inside of it.

    Want to Sell 371k demo chop saw

    Starts and runs. Got it in an auction lot, so I haven't really looked at it much. Put a new disc on it and put fuel in it and it fired. The blade shroud looks a little rough. Has a second hesitation getting up to full throttle, I think it just needs a carb adjustment. $250 plus shipping. Video...

    Want to Trade 394xp parts for builder 2165

    Is that a common problem on those? I didn't notice my 394 was cracked there until I finished a total rebuild, then had to strip it back down and switch the case half out. Good of you to look it all over and point it out to your future buyer.

    Husky 445 X-Torx Problem child

    Are the limiters removed from carb? If adjusting h and l didn't do anything to the tune, I would be cleaning the carb or changing carb diaghrams. Was it stored with gas in it? I agree 125 sounds low, but should be enough to run. Looking at the piston would still be a good idea.

    Almost missed it

    My wife's co-worker asked me to look at a saw that wasn't running right. Just needed some fuel system work, but luckily I decided to strip it down a little farther and take a peek at the piston. It was a good thing I did, since I found this little hairline crack. If it was one of my own saws, I...

    Sold Stihl 011av

    Looks like i should throw a couple select parts on eBay to get my money back and then trash the rest of this thing.

    Sold Stihl 011av

    I didn't really have a price in mind. I have sold those small Stihl bars and chains before for about $20. I looked on eBay at sold listings and an 011 parts saw goes for around $40-70 shipped. So somewhere in there minus the eBay premium. But after looking at sold listings it seems like maybe I...
