Keep us posted !

Can you still turn the engine by pulling the chain round the bar with it in place but not the side cover clamped up ?
-
Been off this week with my knee . Watched some of the matches . The Scotland lads got tonked buy the blacks ......
-
Could it be some thing making the coils break down after time . The first one and now this one ?
-
As always..... it sucks . Sorry for you bud .
-
But good for pulling

Robinia: a replacement for Sweet Chestnut & cedar?
Stubby replied to SteveA's topic in Forestry and Woodland management
Its very good fire wood ...... -
All this is true Tim . Thats why people of your experience will know whats about right for what species of wood and what condition . You use all this knowledge to haggle the price surely ?
-
I would go with this one . Not enough compression when it gets warm . Check piston through exhaust port if you haven't yet .
-
I'm not reacting as you are probably right and to be honest I forgot what numbers/letters for chains mean about 100 years ago !

£ 7.99 on fleabay now .....

Wish you hadn't Mike or is it ok ?
-
If you haven't got a ported saw ( or a big motor ) then sometimes it will make it worse . You need torque to pull a high gear . Like trying to drive your truck up a steep hill in top ....
-
Is the very first one ( on the left in pic ) Robinia ?
-
What color was the plug you first took out > If it was black and sooty could be running rich ....
-
You astound me Holmes......

I can smell the cooking from the photos ....Calamari ........mmmmmm

Think the " little white grill thing " is a reflection on the shiny new plastic ?
-
Oh I don't mind . Not much in it really . The Stihl has been around longer and the Husky one is supposed to be a bit harder to work on ( though mine as not needed it ) . The Husky one is supposed to have a straighter blow in relation to the handle so as to minimise the twisting moment that is present but not a big deal really ....
-
I have the Husky hand held one and the Stihl BG 85 . The Stihl sounds as though it blowing harder than the Husky and the Husky sounds like a bag of nails but just edges it on puff .
-
Neat trick !
-
Looks like an ornamental plumb type ....
-
They will until the rollers ware down then they will be OK for a chain at the end of its life but no good for a new one .
-
I would have taken it back . There may be a whole batch of faulty bars sitting there ....
-
I don't know if the oil hole would line up as never tried it but I do know that length for length a husky bar uses more driver links that the equivalent Stihl
