  1. you came, you saw, you conquered. You assessed the risks,no injuries no damage. Jobs a gooden,Well done.
  2. mmmm 3120, ive had 2 in the past 24 years,good saws but with each one the clutch drum wore it's way through the side casing (over a good amount of time and use)in places it did'nt affect the performance just a bit odd.
  3. i meant to say the shelf life of 2 strke mix!! oops.
  4. What is the right 2 stroke oil? I myself use husky saws and have always used either husky or stihl 2 stroke oils, i did once try the cheap option thinking i could save some money when doing some forestry work but all it did was carb up the plug and eventually the plug went pop so you can imagine what it was doing to the rest of the engine! BUT at this time i am using Q8 MOTO RS Extreme 100% fully synth 2 stroke oil supplied from a company called CALDO i imagine they have depots nation wide as the husky synth mix oil was far too expensive!! With most oils fully synth is the best and it gives that NEW saw smell we all love. but with that said always go for the best that u can afford.
  5. the shelf life of 2 stroke is an odd thing, ive never had any probs in 24 years, if your not using it for a while store it air tight in a cool place so it wont get a chance to heat and cool which would result in condensation and poss water mixing with the fuel which over time won't be good. Same can be said for saws,if your leaving them for a long time make sure they are run empty b4 putting them away and depending on the length of time they are to be left take the spark plug out and put a bit of 2stroke oil in. But with that said with any fuel i have used if you're not sure don't use it.
