Tripod is the shizzle. Done a few like this 30'' x 8' larch stems. Winch length ways up ramps is a bit poor, often push ramps around and requires a very good winch point on yer pickup. Have have hoyed a trop around the whole back of cab with the doors open in the past, but obs not ideal. What length and diameter are you doing? Can you bully/farm Jack one end up onto back of truck and slide it on the rest other way? Found the farm jacks good to a point then suddenly lethal when the decent to drop sideways.

I would say junk at all, could make something well nice out of them, especially if left chunky boards

I'd buy a cheap bluetooth diagnostics tool for sure. Check yer fuel and air filter. Any smoke?

Worth checking it but I'd be surprised tbh

What's compression like after 3 mins? My money is on the coil like

I also cant help feel that although burning green logs in cities will uncountable contribute to air pollution, there must be bigger fish to fry on the air pollution front.

Think it's quite common on these side exit exhausts on echos. I have seen a few like this. Shame. Dont think it will effect the use of the saw too much. Think folk have cut the plastic back around them in the past. Sorry to hear echo haven't been helpful

Does it stop dead after 3mins or slowly get shitter and die?

Yes, the coils are wierd. My 361 was a right twat. Working ok then cutting out at random. Usually restarted fine. Next time it cuts out check the spark immediately. Spud replaces replaced my coil after I had gone mad trying to part mine and rebuilt the carb about 14 times. It has recently gone again, this time it seemed to advance the timing and became nearly impossible to pull over. Wasnt going to spend a fortune on an OEM coil as the last one lasted 2or 3 years. Have replaced with cheapo Chinese one a few months ago. Seems fine for now. Not saying this is defo the bother, but my 361 drove me mad and turned out to be an unpredictable coil

Well thanks everyone for help. Put ram fully out. Brimmed with oil, let it down a bit on the valve, manual pump did nothing. Undid one of the bleed valves on side air came out then oil. Did not back up manual pump works a treat now. Just off to mop up all the oil that pissed out the fill cap when ram came all the way back. Once again arbtalk saves the day. Many thanks

Imho you wont need an updated oiler with a 20" bar. I ran a 30" no bother on my 66

Ahem.......I am also a senior member and do not appreciate your tone

They are just called oh twenties I believe, even 020, but never ms020

Never slackened off after milling myself. Never snapped a chain milling neither. I suspect, if you now have the correct lopro sprocket for the chain, and you have a new chain you wont snap it. Potentially due to wear from wrong sprocket and multiple DIY chain link fixings you are having issues. Youd know pretty quick if it weren't oiling, assuming you are experienced with saws ( reckon so).

Cant see that info on the app. Maybe you should just use that until you become mature enough to be a senior member. On my mobile it just describes you as a member, which gave me a smile.
