Thanks for the link
Thanks, looks like I won't be buying one. $45 a little to much for some cable when I could make it at home or use ropeStarter cable. I'm not a fan of these. Make the pull harder, not forgiving and it's possible to get a wicked sliver stuck in your finger.

I us Para cord on all my saws and it works perfect. Gonna stop by the store and pick up some cable or ropeIIWM (if it were me) I’d try a length of braided pull rope, 5mm or so.

It's 1/8 more sure then not. Thinkin buy 2' and use a mig welder and make a ball on the end. Your thoughts?Having worked in the wire rope industry, I’d hazard a guess that is 3/16” 7 x 19 galvanized aircraft cord. Or maybe 1/8”.
Same stuff used in counterweight/spring balance system for your overhead garage door.
Hardware stores sometimes have it in spools and sold by the foot.
The swaged on ball end fittings are the only major hurdle to overcome.
Ohhh, thanks. That's makes sense now. What's the line for?The spring in a line is to keep the line from collapsing.

Thats makes sense but the tank it higher then the carb. Why would it need one?Impluse line to power the fuel pump side of the catb usually ,but I'm not familiar with your model.
The saw I have I think has a float style carb, Im not fully sure. Haven't had time to look at itI don't yet have the 26LCS but I do have its little sister, the 1st gas saw Homelite made the 20MCS and they are very similar in that it too has the rotating handle to accommodate the non diaphragm carb (float style)
