Okay, so my old 61 finally gave up the ghost and after shopping around looking at Stihl, Dolmar, Jonsered and Husky I decided on the Husky 365XT. Anyhow my question is this. Different dealers seem to have varying views on saw storage. Sometimes my saws might sit a month or more at a time and each dealer I told that to said to treat them a different way. Some said to keep them full of gas, others said to run them completely dry and let them die out and that is the best way to keep the gas from eating everything. All I know is I hate this new gas and I am sick of replacing fuel lines every year. Any suggestions? Also, 87 or 93 octane? Husky dealer said 93 b/c it is better gas, I agree but my theory is that the stations don't sell as much 93 so the 87 you buy would be fresher. And yes I do put in the ethanol stabil as soon as I bring any gas home in a can so I know it has all been treated no wandering later on. I realize these topics have probably been debated before but after I short search I did not turn up anything.:msp_confused:
