Have you seen an increase in fuel problems since e10 fuel mark ?

It also helps if the saw wasn't running when it gets dunked. 

Yup, I fixed a 361 which had been dunked while running, the hydraulic lock when the piston hit water stopped it so suddenly that the flywheel sheared its locating key. New flywheel sorted it.

The very experienced local bloke, like he has been there 25 or 30 years, that got my FS200 running again quite recently, said to avoid E10.

That they have cause to associate it with, presumably, a significent increase in carburettor issues, particularly? on strimmers/ brushcutters.

I’ve got no end of problems at the moment with saws that have sat …. Some of these are nearly new saws too
