  1. Is it part number 19? If so they are £5.84 + VAT I dont think we have any in stock(we have hundreds of spares but my organisation of them isnt the best!) but husky do, so any dealer should be able to get hold of it for you. We order with husky more or less every day so give me a shout if you get stuck. If its not that part which bit is it?
  2. As stubby said. At the worst you might have to do an autotune setup but tbh it will probably be fine from the off. The autotune only starts to work after the saw is warmed up and been used for about 5 mins AND the machine is used on full throttle. It has a sensor on the throttle so using it at part throttle wont allow the autotune to do its stuff. I have some good pdf presentation on how it all works. I will dig them out and get a thread put up.
  3. The rrp for 10 litres of LS is £60 + VAT We charge slightly more for oil on the web site than in store due to postage costs. Although we dont have any in stock it would be £45 + VAT in store probably about £48 + VAT on the web. Husky usually have plenty in stock so could be worth getting your local dealer to add some on to his next order, although I cant vouch for what price they would sell it at. Hope it gives you an indication of cost.
  4. You really do hate that saw. Pity as our one has been brilliant and quite a lot of our customers rave about their 540 I think its safe to say you got a bad one. Have you slung it to the dark depths of the workshop or is it still in use?
  5. Have a look at the arbortec breatheflex range. XL in short leg should do you but best to find a local dealer and try them on. Arbortec Breatheflex Chainsaw trousers Type C They have proven to be a very popular trouser, light and breathable, early days to comment on how hard wearing they are as they have only been about for a few months.
  6. What husky need to do is attach the strop eyelet to the other side of the AV spring. Most of the chainsaw weight is on the 'wrong' side of the AV spring. I was going to have a go at modding our one but like a lot of things I never got round to doing it:001_rolleyes:
  7. Not sure but the new one has met some new(or is that knew ) legislation in regards to work around electricity.
  8. Come on, I new that it began with a K, give me some kredit:001_rolleyes:
  9. IIRC the vertex 2 will have a removable/replaceable chin strap, other than that I don't really know! It isn't available yet afaik.
  10. Was it the red HP by any chance?
  11. Just out off interest In regards to the carbon build up problem which two stroke oil have you been using? We have only had one back as a poor runner, it was the ignition coil, but it's not like we have sold hundreds of them plus all of ours have been 2012 models onwards.
  12. Most of them are made in the same factory. The ghillie is better IMO due to it having a whistle which is handy as they can boil up quicker than you think and running them dry can easily burn them out. Plus its manufactured in the UK.
  13. Would you like me to fill it with aspen as well? Mendiglogs, its 2016, I think they might have a photo of it at this APF:thumbup1: The pricing will come down when we finally get them in and see the invoice, just in case they made any changes to the supply price etc. Those who have paid pre order price will be refunded the difference.
  14. Hopefully!! Well they are supposed to be on the way to the UK for the 19th of september. Maybe just in time for the APF! New Husqvarna Fuel Combi-can - Fuel cans & accessories. - Consumables Although I heard the same about the 540 back in 2010:laugh1:
  15. Did you manage to sort it out? I had a 236 toolless tensioner in the other day the bar studs were exactly the same length as a standard 236, in fact I tried to swap the sprocket cover and it fitted perfectly. here are the IPL The bad news is the complete standard cover is just under £40 + VAT!!
  16. Sorry for the very late reply. I have no info other than that I have asked Meindl UK but haven't heard back yet, so not looking very hopeful unfortunately.
  17. Cheers Ray hope all is well mate. Yeah unfortunately it is definitely someone who is in the industry and no doubt has been in a few times, they knew exactly what they wanted and where it was. The police are still looking into it as it is worth their while , ie they haven't just given us a crime number it is being investigated still. Catch you soon Ray. Hedegesparrow, its probably still in the area being used mate. At least measures have been put in place that will make things a lot more difficult and has upped the odds of them being caught quite a lot.
  18. I thought it might save him some down time and expense in returning the saw again etc.
  19. I would check that the tank vent isn't leading and that the impulse pipe isn't either detached or split. I have seen these two problems on the 540
  20. It looks like there are only two variations so there is a good chance it will fit, but dont take my word for it:laugh1: This is the other and older design. I didnt see your original post, as others have said it probably just needs cleaning out, maybe the odd new part but TBH you wouldnt need a whole clutch cover unless the actual cover itself is badly damaged.
  21. You are missing a couple of digits from the first part number. Lots of the 257 262 clutch covers do cross over with each other but it also looks like there are a lot different part numbers and designs. Your part number will fit these saws. Do you have any other info on what year saw the part is off?
  22. I dont want to jump in on this thread trying to sell something , but i've just looked and the parts are available from husky so worth giving your local dealer a shout.
  23. Fairy common on the 200, I have seen loads of these over the years, it is probably a blockage in the pump. You will need to take the clutch and drive sprocket off to get at the pump. If you remove the pump which is held on by two screws then rotate the drive gear in the pump should see the blockage come out. You have to rotate the gear backwards, so try it both ways.
  24. My suggestion is to mix as big a quantity as you can. We always mixed 20 litres to 400ml at a time. The chance of getting it inaccurate are reduced plus any discrepancy in fuel and oil quantities is reduced. I would presume fuel pumps are fairly accurate but IIRC someone, somewhere on the internet or in a pub did some research and the findings were that if you feather the pump ie on/off/on/off etc then you get slightly less fuel. Although not too good for the wallet it isnt the worst scenario for the saws.
  25. IanW, sorry only just seen your question. jim94 is correct, unless you're northern Scotland etc then its another £6.5 + VAT unfortunately. Cheers for the order jim, they are a very nice looking helmet and have some nice features. Only taken 6 months to get them on the shelves.
