Husqvarna 136!!!!

I have a 36 that has been a fine little saw and never, ever gives me any problems

i dont understand the thread. if you have an opinion of a saw and it cant be changed, then dont ask people for reasons to feel any different about it. but most importantly don't ass-u-me that your "opinion" is automatically the only correct one. it sounds like you're very happy with the husky and i'm a husky guy as well but... i have a 137 and i consider it a turd lol.

Most saws are going to be 100x the saw that an 025 is.

Ouch!!! How can you say that??????

So 3yrs after the smoke clears here (or outhouse stench?) I buy one off eBay for about 175US. Looks like it's hardly been used! god help me if it's a poulan in any form. My dad bought one of those new when I was 12, he let me do all the cutting with it and I totally destroyed it in about two winters cutting old dryed Aussie hardwood. Regular forcing of a blunt saw will do that I found, anyway, We bought a husqvarna 61 hardwood as its replacement in about 1988 and .. I think .. is still going strong .. not sure exactly as my exes bf scored from her shed along with other goodies and hocked it last year the ********. So how far have I downgraded? I'll let y'all know soon

I’ve got a 136 on the bench now that runs and idles and I’m trying to decide whether to put much effort now or save it for crappy day in January.
I also have a 141 that surprises me with the strength it has after a minor muffler mod. And it’s not really a mod but a fix. And the 136 has the same issue. The inlet to the muffler is smaller than the cylinder exhaust. Make that change.
