Does anyone have any experience with the husky 334T top handle saw? I am looking at a used one that needs carb work and am wondering how it compares to the 192t. What is a good price for this saw that needs carb work
I'm not a husky lover but my freind that has a small business is and bought a new 1 about a year ago. I have nothing bad to say about it. I used it up in the bucket and it runs and handles nice and smooth, starts well. Unlike his previous 335 no problems. I think it handles better then the 019 well enough. I bought a used 192 a while back but haven't used it enough to compare.
Basically a 338xpt/2139t with a smaller 35cc engine.
If it is a 2007 or newer it should be OK afaik, probably 2006 as well. I would stay away from one of the older ones.

I wouldn't be very particular in that case. Remember the saw is at risk such as being dropped out of the tree, run over , stolen, etc.. I use a couple old Sachs Dolmar 105's for that kind of stuff mostly. I used to have a rear handle Remington Mighty Mite Bantam I really liked when climbing around in trees and working of ladders tied down. It was light enough it wasn't to difficult to hold by the rear handle and reach farther limbs but no chain brake.I missed out on it so the search continues. I'm looking at a top handle for a trim saw when I'm out building dear stands and clearing trails. One of the guys I hunt with just got a 192 and I liked it but the throttle response wasn't what I would call spectacular
Are the 2135 and husky 335 the same engine?
I haven't used a 334, but have run 335's in the bush for years, the 334 won't have the grunt of the 35cc model but XPT's are comfortable light and balanced. No point in running anything other than a 12" bar on them either. 335's had a dodgy fuel tank breather that didn't flow well enough(easy enough to fix) If the breather isn't sorted, you can spend all day tweaking the carb constantly and still not get a reliable tune. Really frustrating. The earliest ones had a carb boot that would split too, but that part was replaced with an upgrade that gives no trouble. Also their mufflers need modding with extra outlets which improves the low end response
Like I say, I never ran a 334, but 334's were always cheaper than 335's and always had lower HP specs on paper, if they are actually 35cc I wonder what the difference is? If the cylinder is the same part number then possibly it's only the carb?
