LOL!!! French or Canadian! Even worse French Canadian! (just kidding canucks)
Well I am with the Husky camp I guess, but bragging doesn't make a saw better no matter the brand.

How did this turn into a fat chick thread??????
The number I saw on the saw was 311y or y311, if I remember right.
The bar says rollomatic ES
Stihl 1.3
3003 000 8822 3/8
50 cm/20"
t e 72
The front sprocket seems to be locked up, I cannot move it by hand. I will oil it and see what happens

I don't think its ever gonna run like a raped ape, but a 290 can perform reasonably well. 20" of bar is OK provided you don't try to use all of it at once. As with all saws, fresh mix with good oil, clean airfilter, and sharp chain are start.
Mine has a 16" and runs .325 .063 chain. A friend has 20" on his and he seems happy.

C'mon everyone knows a bigger bar makes a more powerful chainsaw.

Hey them big uns need lovin too!!!!!! LOLOL!!!!
I thought I was agreeing with your sarcasm over some one trying to tune the saw before verifying fuel hose integrity,,,,, :monkey:
I'm leaving the reference to fat chicks alone,,,,, Yer on your own on that one!!!!!
"If you're skeerd,,,,,, say you're Skeerd!!!!! LOLOL!!! I'm Skeerd!!!!! :hmm3grin2orange: :help:

Oh... He's saying your saw is a dog, so take it for a walk (on a leash)...
You're a clever guy Lake, you figured it out.
Well, I really try to be humble but when it comes to the 290, I just can't.

LOL! Maybe I should see if there is a 24" for my 33.4cc Echo! :monkey:
Yeah, well, the Jred dealer sold my father a 49cc 2054 with 20" bar, and I see references to 026/260 Stihls with 20" bars. Personally, I think its OK provided (1)it doesn't change the balance to the point that the saw is a pain to carry and use, and (2) it isn't expected to cut with authority with the full length of the bar.
The extra reach can come in handy, lessens the need to bend over, etc, but when its obvious that the saw is cutting slowly, its either time to sharpen the chain, or step up to a bigger saw.
Oh Boy
You guys are a bad influence. You have me looking at more saws now. I do this with fishing and hunting. It was never enough bows, guns and fishing stuff. Now I can see a lead of chainsaws in my near future. Ebay here I come.

Sounds like you are all set . In the 290 , you have a good dog for hunting and a heavy anchor for fishing :hmm3grin2orange:
Hope you have no hard feelings if I make a little fun of you 290 ?
