I think the model I bought was MTH4000, 40 cc saw. I like Stihl and Echo, have both but bought the efco. I also have a near new bar and couple of 16 inch Cain’s that fit the efco, left over from my old homelite I ran over with the tractor. I sure like the chain adjustment screw on the side...

Needed a new small saw, ran over my old Homelite with my tractor, bounced it out of the bucket. Couldn’t compline, had it 10 years and bought it on eBay refurbished for 59 dollars. Seems to be good saw for the money. I needed small sar. Found a 16 inch bar efco for 159 bucks on eBay with...

I need to look at the YouTube videos to see how to mod the muffler on my 490. We have large pine trees in east Texas, but timber company took most of the big ones off my place. I seldom need a 70 cc saw. But will agree a 70 cc saw would have come in handy on some large stumps a while back. I...

Evidently I’ve bought the wrong saw 4 times, I’m about to buy another and I don’t use a saw all that much!!!

Will probably pull the trigger on a 4200. No dealers close to me that I know of, will wait till I get a discount coupon from homedepot and order one online. Would prefer to get one from a dealer. I want to keep a saw on my tractor in a box to keep out of the weather. But also want to rig up...

I didn’t look to see where they are made, my guess the small saws would be made in China.

I don’t know all that much about saws as opposed to some one that uses one for a living. I only use them on my property or hunting property we have leased from a timber company. I have a stihl MS291 and CS490. Haven’t used the Echo much, seems a little weak/choked down for 50 cc saw. May...

Uhh..........I am sure enough small time. I just walk out back with my 14 inch 69 dollar refurbished homelite to cut down a 6 inch post oak and stack to burn when needed It don't get to cold in East Texas all that often. Doesn't take my 291 Stihl or 490 Echo for what little I cut. Now those...

I can’t find the 54 dollar Poulan, guess I dreamed it. I googled it last night, or thought I did.

I have a 16 inch homelite but it leaks bar oil real bad, I need to fix it but can’t seem to find time. I bought a 490 echo the other day which I like better than my 291 stihl but didn’t really want to spend pro or near pro saw money for a truck saw. I’m not familer with the 14 inch Stihls, I...

One would think a guy with 4 saws would keep one around. I jumped the same downed pine tree not once, but twice driving to my area to hunt. Once yesterday and once today. The last time it looked like a spike strip. 14 of us have 5300 acres leased for deer and hog hunting in East Texas from a...

I need to learn the best way to remove the limiter caps. I read something about using a drywall screw, but would think it would cause the screws to move and loose point of reference for lack of better terms. One YouTube video showed a guy using forceps but it took him a while.

I watched a YouTube Video on muffler mod, well part of it but need to watch it again.

I bought a new CS-490 today. The first time I tried to start it, I hit it 5 or 6 times and it didn't start. I was like this sucks. I get the manual out to make sure there isn't a trick. Also put my glasses on to make sure I could read the kill switch, sucks getting old. I picked it back...

I live in Texas, we do not have Rural King. We have TSC and they do not have the good deals like RK. I checked RK online but they didn't have any 50 cc. Echo saws on their website. They had a 59 cc cheap enough I almost bought it. Can't remember what it was but it was a good price. I...

Looks like they are all gone. I would have bought one of those kits to give it a shot. Looks like fun.

I looked online, I can do a little better. Some of the eBay deals had no return policy. Couple new in box on Craigslist but you never know what your getting into buying on Craigslist in Houston Texas, probably pass on Craigslist. I need to watch YouTube and better understand muffler mods and...

I’ve had a Stihl 291 for a couple of years. It does good for my weekend stuff and the property I have leased for hunting. I’d like to get something just a little lighter, that and I’ve never got used to the Stihl. I shut it down going from choke to run way to often when I start it. I have...
