  1. Why is a Tachometer (rev counter) needed for tuning? When tuning with a tachometer, am i right that the manufactures recommended high revs should not be exceeded, even if the engine sounds better? I have a cheap tachometer ordered and on its way!!
  2. I want to know what is the best way to deal with a chainsaw that is straight out of the box. 1. Should it be tuned straight away or wait till its been run-in for approx 20 hours? 2. Should a little extra oil be added to the fuel than normal, to aid in the run-in process? Any other suggestions? I've read others talk and some say its best to go easy and other say you should race the engine from new. I would go easy, but that is not my question for now.
