Dick leigh is best in area but he is near clitheroe, whats wrong with saw, i fix all mine myself, usually quite simple even pistons,

i fix mine too,let us know whats wrong we might be able to help & save you a few quid

Try Dougie Ivinson at Melmerby, he'll tell you if it's worth saving (assuming it's bust!). After that its probably down to Clitheroe. If you find someone local that can tweek a 357 xp to get some more grunt and go out of it, let me know I've 2 in need of some attention.

dougie can take along time to fix stuff ive heard, andrew at barnfields in carnforth is **** hot.

hi treedave

you can get more power out of some husqvarnas,look at the air filter housing is it larger than the carb i:e it restricts airflow,you can file out etc there is also a mod you can do on the exhaust,i will try & see if i can find the details,but i suspect as the 357xp is a high revving engine any mods will just shorten the life of engine..

Never tried Barnfields - always looked more mower / toy tractor than chainsaw, but I'll give them a try.

Shropstar - Will have a look at the filter / carb as you suggest, but I aint the best mechanic, so always a bit wary of cooking the means of making the rent. When I work on stuff I usually end up with spare bits left over:lol:

I have a problem with Husky 346 and 200T Stihl which are difficult to start and they dont run properly and cut out.......any help?:-)
