    Require help with chainsaw choice

    Sounds like you asked for Olga the mail order bride and got a younger hotter sister that is going to put a big smile on your face for two cords. And she's got some fire in the handlebar that Olga didn't have. The 346xp is good enough to do what a 359 is expected to do for (more than) two cords.

    help with oil, new 346

    I wasn't happy with the amount of oil my 346xpne put out. You need to decide if you want to fix the saw or the dealer fixes the saw under warranty. My dealer said EPA wants less bar oil so get use to it. I drilled the oil pump holes two drill bit sizes bigger and enlarged the bar holes the...

    Cylinder work (first try)....how does she look?

    I thought you were supposed to use solder to check squish, not a timberjack.

    Square filing. Who has tried, and given up?

    I tried square chain a couple of years ago. I liked the faster speed. But I gave up because it was taking a long time to file. At the time,for me, the extra time needed to file it added up to way more time than the faster cutting speed gave. I do plan on giving another try. I had the flat...

    NE 346XP - Affects of Cat Muffler & Muffler Mod - Porting & Popup To Come

    I modified the tank vent on a 346, but haven't been able to test drive it yet. I have pictures, but never have posted on the internet before. What I did was 1-empty gas tank on chainsaw 2- take front handle bar off. This allows spreading the gas tank base from the top end 3- set chainsaw...

    011 av Mix in Muffler?

    Thanks for the suggestion on the metering posts. I think I'll do that when I get back to that saw. The 011 I have is running good enough to get used but it is not set at ideal. There are worse things than running too rich. Also this saw is a low horsepower slower rpm saw and the only saw I...

    011 av Mix in Muffler?

    The rebuild kit I got is K10-WAT, and then it has 02 2009 under that (maybe manufacture date?). I used the see-through blue diaphram. When I was having gas out the muffler, it wouldn't even start. Now I am playing with the float lever height because it seems to run rich even for the H & L...

    011 av Mix in Muffler?

    I have been working on a 011 the last week, mainly the carb settings. I don't think I have it dialed in either. I had gas out the muffler after the carb rebuild. After taking the carb apart several times, same thing-gas out the muffler. Long story short, I let color and material type...

    Sawhorse advice

    I put three or four small square bale of hay on the ground, in a spaced row, and put the wood on top. The bales are on edge so the twine wont get cut. When the chain cuts through it's not a big deal. Also there are replacement wood "stands" around. It is alittle low to the ground though.

    My compliments to Stihl

    Howdy, I would also like to see parts online for Stihl and wouldn't mind seeing a way to get pricing from the internet. It sometimes would be nice to look at a chainsaw and know the price without a salesman standing there. It kind of has the feeling of being at a new car lot with a salesman...
