    Need help IDing tree disease

    And I've lived here all my life and did not recognize a hackberry tree or ever heard of a Hackberry gall psyllid until today. I guess my MIL is in for a tough fall with all the bugs. Thanks to you guys from back east for helping me learn something today. At least I can ID hickory and oak when...

    The ash tree in my mother-in-laws yard is just covered with lesions on its leaves. Can you guys tell me what the disease might be and if there is any treatment she should consider ?

    Latest 50cc saws seem a lot stronger

    I'm not sure we, The Public, gained anything from that lawsuit. Try to find how how many hp a lawnmower has these days. The manufactures won't publish specs anymore due to getting burned in the lawsuit. The old hp specs may have been overstated by a bit, but at least you could compare engines.

    Total greenhorn struggling w/ every saw i own, please help....??!!!

    The port that corresponds to the opening that the impulse line plugs into is the one that should be open. You can verify that the port plug needs to be swapped by looking for the corresponding opening where the carb mates with the handle. On the other side of that opening will be the impulse...

    Total greenhorn struggling w/ every saw i own, please help....??!!!

    His symptoms are the same as I had on my 361 after I forgot to plug the impulse line onto the new tank/handle. Sure sounds like a missing impulse to me.....

    I Smashed my NEW MS 362!

    Don't idle a saw to break it in (or idle much any other time for that matter). Replace the broken trigger interlock, then go to the woods and run it like you stole it. Your saw will like you much better if you do.

    Right answer from the dealer. I'd rep him if there was a way. :msp_thumbup:

    MS 280__looking for advice

    Agreed. The mounts did not break, the handle broke. I've not had problems with the AV mounts or the handle on my 270 after 4 years of use and abuse....

    Stihl ms 361

    The MS 361 also has an accelerator pump that gives a shot of fuel when the throttle is opened. If you can't get it to smoothly accelerate by opening up the L adjustment, then check out the pump.

    How many saws is this going to burn up?

    Just so y'all know, I retired from IBM after 30 years and bought a Sears dealership so I'd have something to do in my old age. I'm just not ready for a rocking chair yet. The 4 cycle fuel rings up as 'Trufuel' on the register. The mix fuel rings up as '40:1' or '50:1', but it is in the same...

    Sears Craftsman

    Interesting. The website specifies a 10 year engine warranty as well, but when I pulled up the owners manual it specifies a 2 year warranty with no mention about a 10 year on the engine. Two years on a rebranded Poulan is still pretty good.
