Hi Jon, we use stihl synthetic in all our saws ( which have had no problems - running twelve of them -so you can be sure it aint fuel ) Its a 2012 model , first used in Oct 2012, from Ernest Does , Uttesford , obv when it blew , it was under the bench fr a bit because I have plenty of better things to do than fix stuff all day. New barrel an piston arrived an after a couple days gentle use - it got used full bore fr two months . Seized in just the same manner - seemed to Hi Rev a bit on occasion hence my suspicions on the auto-tune business

Get it back to the dealers and get a computer diagnostic as you might find the warranty will Cover it if something was at flat with the saw and not down to fuel flat

 

Whats a fuel flat ?

[Gray git]

A fuel flat is nerveless finger spelling for falt, not my worsed miss spelling I'm sure :what:

 

sent while pretending to do something important on my mobile.

I dont get it?

You bought a new saw, from a dealer I presume? not a bloke down the pub?

Then why on earth would you do anything other than take it back to be fixed or exchanged by said dealer when a problem arose?

 

You fixed it yourself, but without understanding why it went wrong the first time how can you expect it not to go wrong again?

 

I hope I'm missing something here, otherwise I'd say it's really bad form to then come on here and have a moan at Husqvarna.

Mine is a 2012 saw and has been great. Happily buy another.

Was it out of warranty when you fitted the new piston yourself? I guess it was....
