My stihl won't run on Aspen - problem solved

[geoff]

Hi all,

 

My email is [email protected].

 

Sorry

 

Eddie, you are doing a great job mate, loads of enthusiasm.

Yep, can't fault Eddie. He really is doing all he can for Aspen and it's customers.

 

Just a liitle update from the shop. He rang me this morning and said he has cleaned the carb, diaphragm is good etc, machine is now running like new, there was no dirt in the carb. He said there was a little oil but not sure if that was making the needle stick a little, says he is not sure. But no charge, so that's good. Credit to him and Eddie.

Hi Eddy,

 

Yes I would be more than happy to see Staffs Wildlife trust. I won't have time on this trip, do you have a contact for them?

 

Be great to see you.

 

All the best

Interesting to hear about the aspen issues, i run a tank of it through my saws after every five litres of two stroke/petrol mix and i've never had any problems with starting or performance. Aspen is too expensive to run in my saws all the time so i think i'm getting the best of both worlds. They say Aspen burns hotter that pump petrol so maybe it's harder on the engine over a long period of time. Swings and roundabouts!

Who are 'THEY'?

 

I have perhaps 'converted' more operators to Aspen than most others, certainly more than anyone on this forum and have never experienced a hotter burn than petrol.

 

Certainly a smoother engine and possibly very slightly higher power as a result, but not hotter.

 

Aspen is without any doubt kinder on an engine than pump fuel and a longer engine life can be expected.

''They'' would be tree pro's and saw dealers, your selling the stuff so you would be partial. I believe there's a place for Aspen and by running it through my saws from time to time it definitly improves performance. Given the cost though it's not a runner for me on a full time basis.
