The dealer didnt say how it scored no.He didnt do a vacuum test he proablay isnt set up for that to be honest .I need to take a good look round his shop check out what he has got in terms off tools to test with.

At least check it for air leaks then, and make sure the case and engine bolts are tight, and stay that way. :msp_wink:
I'm down in your neck of the woods for the weekend in Ballydehob. 
Gorgeous down here. Lots of forest, too. My Irish Fiancee' has a bud down here. I think we're due to head in to SCHULL! for tomorrow.

Yeah Ireland is a nice place .. well i got my 560 for 750 from my local dealer but he would cut a good deal.I would say no ill try pm you.
Then the shipping comes to 150 squids.
Thanks for the info, Luke. I'm still not exactly sure which route to go about on the saw. Whether to get one from the states and put me at the mercy of customs or here and port it.

You can't get the 560xp from the US, just the 562xp and 2260.

So you fellas get to trade squids for saws over there????
How many catfish would a new 560 cost me??
:msp_rolleyes:
I was working a deal on a 2260 or a 562 to run up to a 24" bar ported.
2260's are near impossible to find here or the UK.

I got 2 baseball gloves in, valued at $25. Customs is after me for 40 Euro...
No catfish here in Europe. You'l have to convert catfish to squirrels.
Shipping from the UK to here(ROI) is ridiculous compared to how much it is within the UK. However, UK to NI(AKA UK NI) is half what it is to Ireland. Go figger.

Maybe not in Ireland (or Norway?), but I'm pretty sure they are somewhere in Europe.....
