150 eating nylon recoil insert

[csjr]

Had my 150 tc 3 years and have had no issues in fact it's great, a couple of weeks ago the pull start was making funny crunching noises so took it apart to find the nylon insert damaged this has happened 3 more times since, replaced outer case now and it's still happening? Anyone have any thoughts!!!!!! Please

Possible that the flywheel is catching up

Mine does it ,think it's a common fault, I think everything has shifted a touch , I just bought a load of carriers ( insert ) and replace they don't last long , got a echo 2510 now and I'm keeping it for a while

Not taking it back under the recall?

Nah, I love it , going to take it back when the new ones come out and get it replaced, it is a recall after all , so they can't quibble.

Great saw but keep an eye on it, was gonna do the same but found the plastic under the exhaust had gone black and smoking after a few minutes use so decided best wait for the new one
