Not sure about the carb being non essential. I know that they changed the low and high screws but im fairly sure that they changed or sorted out a carb problem as the older machines did have a carb issue that is rectified by swapping it out.

Sorted this out last week. I replaced the clutch as it was looking a bit worn. I'm thinking that the drum was worn out due to leaving it at high idle with the brake on for extended periods of time although that would usually destroy the sprocket cover.

Avertissement de redirection WWW.GOOGLE.COM Saw this a while back in the local news, and was horrified but happy it didn't have an even worse outcome due to the intervention of strangers in the street. However it turns out this week that the guy who initially intervened is a student, and a Muslim immigrant.

But both Husqvarna and Stihl use Zama and Walbro carbs so how can Husqvarna carbs be shyte and Stihl ones be superior. In my experience, the Walbro carbs on the 357xps had accelerator pumps that failed but the infamous MS200T had Zama carbs with pump issues....I didn't purchase them 25 pcs at a time for the fun of it. Unfortunately, the 357xp was new carb time.

I disagree. It won't force people into buying the Vertec, it'll nudge them into buying something like the reflex instead. Poor move if its true.

Get a picture up of each part but you do need to feed the crankcase impulse pressure back to the carb pump diaphragm by channels in casting or pipes from unions in to the crankcase cavity.

Soundbite-tastic! It occurs to me that a few seem to attack those who they think (rightly or wrongly) are bleeding their country dry, but are happy to bypass the system for a few bucks, a strange ethical dichotomy.

well back to this after a few mths. Got a new piston and cylinder, Piston will fit just fine. Cylinder - the original one has a pin hole going right through the wall down at the base, I guess it connects to the carburettor and is used for pumping the carburettor via the pressure pulses as the piston goes up and down. New one doesn't have this hole............ Walbro Carb

The rubber be it nitrile , butile , or whatever has a coating put on it its this that pump fuel removes , You say you have never used an alkylate fuel but you insist that it attacks rubber . How do you know this ?

I wonder how long it'll be before Guo7 appears on Wordle 🤔

You wouldnt like to evolve a product to find that everyone prefered the old one, a waste of R&D and significant costs, two competing product lines running. Removing that choice is better for them.

I'm looking for someone with small trees chainsaw ticket and 1st aid+f to help with some basic cutting. It's mainly hazel coppicing. Based in South Cumbria.

I have had good luck with the Nextbase units lately, decent video, easy to wire in and the app actually works. Thinkmine are the 322GW and they’ve been solid. A couple of the lads use Viofo too and rate them highly if you want better night footage..

Yeah, bit of a shame really. The old RRP was simple and did the job without needing to buy half a dozen extras. Feels like they’ve bundled the same features into the pricier setup now. Classic ‘upgrade’ that ends up costing more for not a lot of real world gain..

Seen this happen a few times with saws that have sat a long time. Even if you drain them, the diaphragms in the carbs can dry out and go stiff, and you get lean on first start which is enough to score a cylinder. Husky or Stihl, it can happen either way. I’d be checking the carb and impulse line before writing the brand off completely.

Ah fair enough. Carroll Engineering are the people in Ireland I was thinking of, they'd make you one with a log lift. I see Oxdale do a vertical/horizontal 16T one that's just over £8k on eBay. Don't know if it's my imagination but these all seem to have shot up in price.

This should tick all the boxs. No idea what it's like, but it's not Chineseium. Tractor Log Splitter - Log Splitter - Vertical log splitter HANDENGINEERING.COM Tractor log splitters. Can split logs up to 400mm. One of safest on the market and CE certified. Shop high quality tractor log...

Thanks but I really need a splitter that doesn't require lifting logs onto a bench.

Hi can you tell me more, location, hours ect.

I should have taken this advise the night i fathered twins 🤣

I owned the saw from new and have never used alkylate fuel. You say it does not attack rubber, that is untrue and depends entirely on which grade of rubber. There are many grades of rubber and in this case Husq had used unsuitable rubbish. Nitrile rubber can be fuel resistant, slightly less so with ethanol fuels (but there are still a great many old cars on the road!). Viton rubber is generally considered best for long term use. One problem I believe to be true, there is so much low quality or fake fuel hose being produced that it can get into genuine supply chains. I assume the same is true for seals etc.. It is difficult to buy decent aftermarket fuel hose for a motorbike for example. It is suprising if a manufacturer is having issues on new kit from the factory, but does seem to be the case.
