    550XP, new A-12 carb? Where to get one, how to match coil?

    I have not switched fuel lines or added a shield. After each trip to the shop, the dealer claims it is "good to go". And sure enough it is NOT good. It will die on throttle. Sometimes it will die in the cut. Somedays it will not start at all. I have even recently taken the carb off and...

    550XP, new A-12 carb? Where to get one, how to match coil?

    Well, this 550xp is getting my blood pressure up and my firewood cutting is getting way behind due to Husky's autotune blunder. I am doing a hail-Mary now and figure a new carb has got to be the solution, but deep down I have a feeling it may just be wishful thinking. I know I would rather NOT...

    How to stop root suckers on Parrotia persica

    I got 2 trees (about 30 years old), but only one of them has begun to send up hundreds of root suckers over the past several years. Of course the more I cut off the suckers, the more persistent they are. Is there some "magical" way to remedy this? The tree really is awesome, but it doesn't...

    550XP, new A-12 carb? Where to get one, how to match coil?

    Saw is a 2014 550XP. I think it has the A1 carb. I need a source for the newest A12 carb (which I can get at Bailey's), but I would need to have it matched to my coil. (Bailey's is not able to do that). My dealer is incompetent and also not an option. A 2nd dealer is 25 miles away. Anyone...

    It’s a beautiful morning thing.

    I see that the 90oct is designed for STIHL and the 93oct is strictly for HUSKY,,,judging by the color of the tank label.:) By the way, what's so special about their ice?

    By the looks of it, you may need a time machine to get there though.:yes:

    Husqvarna 550XP with 3/8" pitch

    Just don't ask MY dealer to do it.:eek: "it can't be done". :laughing: https://www.arboristsite.com/community/threads/550xp-you-cannot-run-it-with-3-8-pitch-setup-no-way.255115/ I run all 3/8 (.58) on my 550XP and it works good for me (when the saw will actually run, which is hardly...

    Alternative to bleach for sterilizing

    I know this is an older thread, but... This may work well? >> 34% hydrogen peroxide.

    Husqvarna 550... cutting out

    To me, it is more about having dealer support if you want an autotune saw. What good is having a saw that you cannot work on if you have no dealer. Heck, around here, Even WITH a dealer it is hard to get an autotune saw fixed due to incompetence. You mentioned you have a good Stihl dealer...

    Is a Stihl MS 261 more "dangerous" than a homowner saw?

    I guarantee you will wish you had that MS261 years ago. ;)
