  1. The 9mm garden guns were quite common in orchards many moons ago and have an option of either shot or a slug, generally a rim-fire cartridge. As for bolt actions, I personally love them, but check the pin, lugs and extractor Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  2. Exactly Jon, the big 100cc+ saws have always had manual oilers otherwise, such a strange thing not to include it on those 2 saw models Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  3. Breather possibly, that would cause it to lean out too, is it a bugger to get the fuel cap open when it's run empty? Otherwise it could be an air leak Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  4. Husky 555 or 365, powerful saws and the 365 is a tested, proven and robust saw Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  5. White spirit is what I use, but it does get warm after 10 mins, so I don't recommend smoking near by Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  6. Pretty much, such simple things to make such a nuts saw! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  7. Decreases crank case volume, increasing transfer velocity, which means a faster pick up and a better transferral of air fuel mix Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  8. No, sorry Alec, but could you not either cut down the later models AV throttle cable or fit the new handles to yours? After all, mine is actually a 1969 contra super crank Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  9. If he still needs any parts pm me and I'll help you out Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  10. Hang on rich! How old is that tractor? I've only ever heard of the cartridge starters on really old prop planes! 090 is refusing to start, looks like something to do with the points ignition, oh how I love these stupid old obsolete moronic ideas! And the 051 has eaten it's starter assembly! It was bogging in the cut earlier, so I wanted to comp test it, went to start it and the pull cord, and nothing happened other than the rope fully extended... Wünderbar! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  11. Which parts did he want that weren't available? I have found a source where I can get all of that models parts Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  12. You working on it? My local dealer told me they couldn't work on mine Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  13. Today's fell, had a wind shattered branch directly above the back of the cut Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  14. Because he guessed right Pyrus it is, without pears though I don't know which one Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  15. Because it seals better, in a nutshell, the carb pulls the fuel from the tank causing a vacuum. And just so you know, the breather is the little brass thing by the pipes, on the 362/365/372/385/390 and so on, they get caked in shite so fast and need blowing out after each use with an airline Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  16. Any tree ID guide is a start, especially when the OP posts so many trees for ID, bite the bullet, spend £20 on the book Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  17. What about making it a sticky? Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  18. No it doesn't use less fuel, those figures are per kWh, and those saws have more than one kilowatt of power! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  19. Yup, complete with dog turds Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  20. It's a detuned 560xp, it has a lower rpm max torque because it doesn't have stuffers to increase transfer velocity. It's still an e-carb! And you're comparing a 50cc to a 60cc, did you compare the 346xp to a 359? Ian Morgan (local trainer) is running 5 of them, only problem he has had so far was a clutch. Finally, I suggest you do some maths with those figures, you'll find the 555 uses more fuel (hence a bigger tank). And it's limited to 13,500 rpm, so it doesn't rev any slower than the 560 Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  21. Yes the husky 550 is the equivalent of the 261, but for near the same price you could get the 555, which is a down rated 560xp. It all depends on what you will be using more, longer bars are better on stihls as they generally have better torque, but a husky has a faster engine, and the 50-60cc range of huskys have more power. That said, I was never a fan of the 260 and the 261 is a POS IMO Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  22. Send it me, I'll put it to good use Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  23. Yeah, think there MAY be a difference in the oil tank but husky literature has always been questionable at best, the 562 is for the yank market as they love running oversized bars with skip chains on tiny saws. As for bar sizes, each manufacturer generally uses 2 sizes, husky changes at the 70cc mark, where as stihl changes at the 100cc mark (with the exception of the 050/1), keep it simple Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  24. Tbf mate, it's almost identical to the 550xp, with a handful of differences, mainly the cylinder porting and the crank stuffers (or lack of). It's a metal crank exactly the same, mostly because husky are lazy and just down rate a machine to get a 'lower grade' product Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  25. Yes, all K095 mounts, the same as from the 36, 136, 236 all the way up to the 346, 357 and all the others of the 50/60cc range, the D009 mount on the 562xp on the other hand, is the same all the way from the 266, 365 up to the 2100 and 3120 Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
