Echo 2511 tuning

[spudulike]

Damn, that's spoilt the fun, can't we try Husqvarna settings next

OK, I will shut up now

Mine ended up in bits after a tantrum whilst trying to give up smoking , dealing with two ropes so had to order another from sky lands on Friday.
My practise with climbing saws always has been if its is over a year old and won’t stay In tune for more than a tank of fuel they should be replaced as it’s probably leaking air from crank seals and on climbing saws that are bread and butter they are better as spares.
I had given this one three carb rebuilds over two years so it had its time.
One thing worth checking as I’ve found to be a problem on the 2511 is split fuel lines.. if it’s not that and the carbs all good bin it.

Blimey Matt, have you aged, I thought if it didn't work, you shouldn't stand underneath as the tool was likely to be thrown out of the tree

I won't say anymore...HS86...damn...sorry!!!

I have even tried Mystic Meg.... it's baffling!  K

the rubber intake boot beneath the carb. can get pulled out of it's location which i think means it will draw air and cause idling issues.

Some of these saws are possessed. I believe the ones with the laser etched serial had their tanks purged with holy water driving out the evil saw spirit that resides in them.

Wish I was Pete Townsend me see... that saw had tested me and ended up with the fate of being more a basil fawtly tantrum than rock and roll suicide... il be trying nicotine patches next time.
