Alright somebody please help me out here. Is it true that talking about a saw running "lean" or "rich" can be interprated two totally different ways?
One could say: my saw is running a lean fuel ratio....they mean that it has a heavy oil concentration per amount of gasoline.
On the other hand one could say: My saw is running a lean oil ratio.....they mean that is has a small amount of oil concentration per amount of gasoline.
In both instances above the user describes his saw as running "lean". When most folks speak of lean they do not denote whether they mean lean in terms of fuel or oil. Ohhh forget it, I'm confusing myself now.
I always get kind of confused about the Lean/Rich statements people make. To me it ultimately comes down to carb settings. But just curious if I was the only one who scratches his head on this constantly. opcorn:
