Not a sidekick, just like minded, sane, and I can think of 4 or 5 AS members that had 5100S blow up and not get covered. Stop making excuses, cold hard facts are making you look a little silly. Nice fanboy attitude by the way. :monkey:
Also, not bashing Dolmar, they make some really nice reliable saws, history has told us the 5100S is not one of them.

Hand me my guitar.
"I'm in the jailhouse now" My my my I shoulda been a singer, roll me a smoke Bubba and no its exit only Mofo,LOLOLOLOLOLOL
Well the PS-5100's days are numbered, anyhow, so love it or hate it while you can.

Awwwwwwwwwww is that the cleaned up version of the 5100? Strato?
Not strato, but has a cat muffler.
It's not clear yet, (not enough info) but I think it has the same engine as the PS-5100, and possibly the same 14.500 rpm coil.
Ethanol info
Good info. What stands out is they do not say ethonal is the boogie man behind every engine failure, good on Dolmar. Dealers should not tell customers well its the new ethonal laced fuels that runied your engine. Any that do is just asking for trouble for the customer will do his homework and come back fit to be tied.
Lean carburetor settings and high operating rpm’s can create potentially
hotter engine temperatures!
Improved air flow system for better engine cooling.
Sorry if I came across that way. I probably did. I'm simply trying to make it clear that the root cause is the tuning, not the fuel. Of course, proper tuning does vary based on the fuel being used.
I hope that muffler didn't gain a ounce, Sawtroll will raise hell,
Well after 5 pages of posts, back to the OP's original post. Your warranty is 2 years so it should be covered. I was at my dealer a while back and he had a 510 sitting there that a guy had straight gassed and the dealer didn't want to even turn it in (mostly because the guy was a jerk ) but Dolmar covered it so you should be more than fine.
From fuel bulletin:
From PS-5105 bulletin:
So the PS-5105 has a catalyst (which would potentially allow Dolmar to richen the mixture? plus better cooling.
Has anybody else noticed that the OP has not posted anymore???
:notrolls2:
Not a brand war but can you honestly name any other saw has had as many lean failures as the venerable 5100S? You certainly don't hear about 346XP, MS260 or even 7900 saws blowing up with low hours obn them, especially by the dozen. Might be something else to this, design flaw or something not even related to fuel mixture.

I bought 2 346NE from local dealer both blown from bad gas .....The dealer was the same one that would not sell a non cat muffler for them ......I bought both saws with out original P/C ....He gave me new P/C in boxes along with the deal .......Dealer sold me the saws and gave owner 2 new ones .......
Bad gas will kill any saw!!!.....Huskys are not immune....
