Just a small update: I was just at my dads', and I bet him the saw would start within seven pulls on the cord. It took six. Apparently, there is a 12-14" tree (pine?) that needs felling, but he hasn't been able to do it on account of not being able to get the saw going. So hopefully within the next few weeks, we'll see what both me and the saw are made of.
Before that, I'll be changing some screws on the saw that have begun to rust. I don't thing they are a safety hazard just yet, but they sure irritate me, especially since the rest of the saw looks brand new.
A thought: Is it just me, or are the mufflers on these saws (Jonsered) really big? The one on the 2149 appears to be morte than twice the size as the one on my little Stihl.
