I picked up a near mint Husqvarna 455 Rancher on the cheap. The thing hadnt even seen a file yet because there was practically no wear on it. I let a buddy use it and I got it back with the typical "I cant get it to start!" GREAT! I checked everything, spark plug, fuel filter, air filter, gaps, fuel etc. Nothing. Opened up the engine and saw my piston is black and brown and looks like someone ran it through a meat grinder. Awesome. Who would have known you cant run bar and chain oil in the fuel instead of 2 stroke oil? Dont loan your chainsaw out to anyone you wouldntloan your wife or girlfriend.
