I would recommend removal, only because if it does fail its absolutely going to damage property. Where it was grown together for years is probably compromised and could lead to disease and rot.

Your gonna get spoiled cutting all that " speed wood" !

Yeah , it's rare for shops to keep a bar that big. Overhead for a high dollar item discourage most places.

Dam dude! I can't believe that this saw hasn't sold.

Directly from their website, farmertech. It took about 2 months to arrive.

Just a thought ,but the case gasket could be broken between the bottom of the cylinder and the oil tank. That would certainly create bubbles and excessive heat. Usually oil will seep into the crank case but not always. You'll have to do a pressure test to confirm.

It's a step that's supposed to increase the flow of the exhaust without making it a bigger hole, it does work .

They are a great stump cutter, we just got one last year. 1 suggestion is to check your drive sprocket bolts for the tracks. One of ours lost 7 of the 9 bolts which pooched the hub threads, the replacement was 373.00$ with bolts.

Th This is where I get my Oregon loops also.

Ms660 clone for 300.00$ is what I'd suggest for milling. They are pretty much solid from the 2 top sellers and are great for the non-pro use. It is true that a 395xp has more grunt , but that damn front tensioner is a PITA when hooked to a mill, and the external clutch. The 660 has a HUGE...

You want to try a Walbro? I think I probably have one or 2 of those. If it doesn't work out you can just ship it back.
