AH HA!!!
I knew this would turn into an oil thread...
I didn't see it going there when I started, but I should have known better...

If I see your saw being run in our woods with no spark arrestor during fire season, you get to go home early. Maybe you get to go fishing instead of cutting wood or logging.
It used to be #2 or #3 on my list. After checking everything but a vac/press. test and sending my 211 to Tommy for a "no power" condition, it turned out to be the screen. So now, it gets checked first.:bang:
Won't happen on my 211 again, she is now muff modded.:rockn:
btw Ed, sell those 2 red headed step children and get a real saw. You did good on the 076, keep in that direction.
I do have another Stihl making its way into the stable. Seems like I only get 30 min a week to work on things since we added a girl to the family 3 months ago, but I've been working on converting an FS120 into an FS250. Tommy has been awesome with advice, specs, and help finding parts. Not a saw, but I'll risk a thread once I get it back together. Might even get to run it today if the kids keep napping long enough!
As for redheads, I've got a seized Jred 630 and a 272 P&C that have been collecting dust for quite some time, so the next saw is going to be even redder if I ever get a chance to work on it.
Of course, if you are worried about saving my soul, I do accept donated creamsicles!

that's just in the crazy PNW. Many European saws don't even come with screens. No such laws in my neck of the woods either and its way drier than the soggy coast

Nice saws there Ed,, now get rid of that creamsickle and get a real saw..
Does it hurt anything just to remove it and not use one at all? I just bought a used Husqvarna 326L and pulled it apart to clean it and give it a tune up and I noticed that the spark arrestor was somewhat clogged up. I removed it and cleaned it up, but then just left it out. Will it hurt the engine by not having it in there? I can't see where it would, but I am not positive. Next thing I would like to do is to mod the cat muffler on that thing!
Always used 50:1 synthetic and avoided excessive richness.
Do you have a 44 Husky for sale? I've been wanting one since I lost mine from a divorce in '87! My wife and I go up to N.H. about every 2 weeks for tax free goods. Getting a 44 has been a dream for a long time! Bob (Cheeves)Usually the last thing i check..
then i can call myself :censored: dummy even more !!
i have found a lot on saws i take in,not on mine.. cant run just one long enough for that to happen..
