Mine was run on aspen for the first 3 years and Stihl synthetic for the rest, never saw a drop of anybody else's fuel can.... I'm always spot on with my fuel mixes.

 

As much as I think Aspen is great for personal health.... just running on 2 stroke Aspen is never gonna cure a manufacturing design flaw.

 

It's a common problem and more & more people will be due to find that out....

cheers, steve

It’s not a common issue, those with bad seals have failed already the issue has been resolved for several years now

 its husqvarna using low quality seal parts causing the problem in the first place, dealer i spoke to today confirmed this. fuel is still an issue with saws left on idle too long and the carb wondering what it should be doing, also fuel filters clogging up and gauze in the carb becoming blocked due to bad pump fuel with high ethanol  levels

It was actually the transfer port cover cap that caused the issue, but this is old news the cylinder has completely changed since!
