Thank you. He just did not have one in stock and has to order it. But I was hoping it would be something I can make from something around the shop by the way he described it. He told me it was just like a thin paper filter..... Apparently he does NOT know what he was talking about as the black...

So I just looked and saw online that what he sold me was the black foam prefilter. I now assume that it is the main filter I will need. So he had told me wrong and I now guess that I will definately need the filter he did not have in stock.

Hi all. So this past week I was fortunate enough to pick up a Stihl HS80 Hedge trimmer, missing only the air filter and cover for $40 CAD. Saw it run briefly when I bought it. Got home and I could not get it to start and run as it did when I picked it up. I was told it had not been used in a...

Thank you. Not sure what type of muffler is on it, but don't run Ave gas anyways, so it sholds be more than safe with my 40:1 mix, probably more like 38:1, as I like to give a tiny extra splash of oil for safety anyways.

Thank you. I just wanted to confirm before doing so I did not end up with a dead saw! Much appreciated.

Hi all again. As things wind down here for me and I can play once again with my saws here, I would just like to confirm something about fuel mixture in my old Pioneer P25/P26/1074 saw (it had parts of all 3 on it, so am unsure of what it is and the ID plate was missing). Anyways, up until last...

Thank you. The saw was passed on today. I didn't want to do it, but I have too many projects on the go and was told to get another, one must go....... Sad day, but bittersweet. Thank you again all for your help and time.

Hi all again. Been a while, but now have some free time to play with my saws again! So last year I aquired a Husqvarna Rancher 50 chainsaw. Got it running ok, but not great. Did not use it until I just dug it out last week. I did drain all gas last fall and run it dry. I put in new fresh gas and...

Very interesting video. And also well done.

Well, it is now running well. Took the air filter off and checked it, and it was good. Then thought of a possible dirty fuel filter, so opened up the tank and checked it, and it was also very good and clean. Third was to check spark arrestor screen. Removed the plastic and took muffler off...

Thank you all again for your help.

Thank you. I guess I should add that the tools I would be using these in are mainly older power equipment and such. I have myself a new MS171, but in that one, I would be using a new factory filter. This question was mainly asked for older equipment I got cheap, and will only run once or twice...

Hi there. Just a quick question regarding in-tank fuel filters. This question is relating to chainsaws, hedge trimmers, and weed trimmers. Is there such thing as a generic fuel filter that would work in various makes and models of power equipment, or does one need to run the specific one to each...

ISO service manual and instruction manual for Echo HC-1500 hedge trimmer. I believe it is an older model. This has a Zama carburetor and 'push-pull choke rather than a flip up-flip down style. I had found an owners manual for that version. I apologize if I am posting in the wrong topic, but...

Hi there. While new to this area of the forum, I thought I would post here of my newest purchase. I bought an Echo HC-1500 hedge trimmer to trim a lilac tree and my raspberry bushes. With that said, I found this one online for sale and the ad reads 'seems to be flooding, pulls well..starts and...

Just east of Winnipeg, about 10 minutes east of the east perimeter.

While still new to all of this, I have a Stihl MS171 with 16" bar and chain and it does well. I would think you could find a used Stihl MS170 or MS171 somewhere with a 16" bar and chain in the $100 range. Sure, it is not that powerful, but as a cheaper back-up saw, I think you would be alright.

Hi again. So I have been told that my Super XL 902 is a Canadian model, fitting as I am in Canada, but was wondering if by chance that anyone may be able to confirm that there was a comparable American model? And if so, may someone happen to have a service/shop manual for that. Even if someone...

Ok, after typing this it was bothering me so I quickly went out to check for spark. Yep, it has!!!!!

Just thought I would share here a picture of what I came home to yesterday evening sitting on my steps...... Any opinions.
