I beleive he did,post #64

 

[Whiskers]

Did I miss it? What caused the original failure?

 

[splitpost]

Not sure , got it from ebay

 

[VinceGU05]

yeah was purchased as a straight gassed saw from ebay. got it running but then had Mastermind do up another jug for me and i did the rest and its an angry saw now.
very happy with it now

Usually straight gas messes up both sides of the jug and an air leak trashes the exhaust side. Didn't know if you found any indication of an air leak.

ok i didnt know that whiskers, interesting, thanks. well the bloke who sold it said he's dad straight gassed it. and i was nervous too for air leaks after i put randy's jug on it so i got my local Stihl shop to look over it for air leaks etc and gave it the all clear.

 

[Whiskers]

Usually a saw with an air leak won't idle down either, but if its idling correctly I wouldn't worry about it.

Just a fill in post. Running great clocked up a few hrs on it now. Not much cause it permanently wears the 32" sugi bar.

Is that one of those super sharp Japanese blades that slice through wood?

 

[VinceGU05]

Sort of. It's the new ultra sonic cutting bar now available.

 

[psuiewalsh]

We have an ultra sonic knife at work. Does not do well on wood.

I gather you spent so much money on the Sugihara that you couldn't afford a chain?
