    Echo 2511 aftermarket air filters

    I'm using the white pleated ones - do you have a PN for the red ones? I've only used 3 of them since I had the saw, it's nice notot have to run back to the shop and get the compressor to blow them out. my original one has a film of oil on a fair amount of surface air -not sure where that came from.

    Echo 2511 aftermarket air filters

    Hey guys, I coulda sworn I bought a $10 non OEM air filter for my 2511 one time (at a dealer), along with a few $20-25 OEM filters. I can't seem to find the non OEM filters anywhere online, and the dealer didn't know about it either. Does such a thing exist? I'd like to order a few.

    .043 chisel chain- does it exist

    Hi - I've converted my 2511 to .043 from the stock .050 - i'm running a 14 inch bar - fits on the floor of my CTL nicely, front of my dirt bike, etc. and not interested in running 1/4 chain. I had grinding the stihl safety rakers down (use 4 inch grinder and works OK) but i've notice in the...

    Want to Buy Stihl 460

    Yea not a rancher 460 obviously. I’m in Northern California and a fire wiped out most of my land 2 years ago. Need some help finding a clean 460 to get through this burnt oat that my 261 is struggling with. I’m gonna run a 32 light bar, so if you have one of them, even better. Power head only...

    Echo 2511 T doesn't richen up

    Set it by the factory recommendations - Turning L, then idle, then L, then H - with a tach. worked fine and the stutter went away. Checked H setting, it was only 1.5 turns out - and running 13200 ish. so leaner than the "factory" settings by screw turns, but set fine by rpm. I didn't turn the H...

    Echo 2511 T doesn't richen up

    Ran at factory settings, plus 1/8 turn rich on H, did that thing I read on another post where it bogs on blip after it comes down out of a cut and idles. Runs Ok in the cut though, so will be throwing a tach on it later this week and will report back. Pics of the MM>

    Echo 2511 T doesn't richen up

    Im sorry - I meant the RPMs should drop when richening up the H screw, not the idle. I have no idea where the factory settings are, and it appears a few other folks on this forum don't know the settings and aren't getting results from backing out the H. What do you mean why was the muffler...

    Echo 2511 T doesn't richen up

    Shouldn't the idle drop as it fattens up?

    Echo 2511 T doesn't richen up

    So I opened up the muffler and pulled the limiter caps off, and I'm not noticing the RPMs come down when I back out the H screw. I took to a friends house with a tach and his tach seemed to be reading 2x (maybe for a 4x), so we couldn't get a good read on the rpms, so we turned in the screw...

    2511 - found 1/4 sprocket but can't find bar

    Can somebody help me understand if there 043 3/8LP chain is narrower than the 050 3/8LP? The both call out narrow keft but the stihl pmm3 seems to call theirs narrower, but i don't know if that's just the guides?

    2511 - found 1/4 sprocket but can't find bar

    I don't have a stihl bar - I just have an echo/oregon 050 bar, and a 043 oregon micro lite on the way to try out, 3/8 LP.

    2511 - found 1/4 sprocket but can't find bar

    Thanks Franny. I don't really care at this point since the options are so limited. thanks for the description of nose diameter. And I assume 043 would make more sense but 050 would be better than the 3/8 pitch I think. Any suggestions?

    2511 - found 1/4 sprocket but can't find bar

    Picked up my Echo 2511 today, skips around too much for me in hardwood and like the way my ms170 cut with the 1/4 pitch chain. My dealer can get 1/4 sprockets and 12 inch bars (he says - but can't find the bar at baileys that he says he can get), and I want a 14 inch bar. Does anyone know of a...
