My other halfs a nurse to so must be a common trend.. Works the clinics in the "womans health" so basically gynaecology or however its spelt. Bless her works around 55-60 hrs a week and when shes not doing that she keeps a bottle of wine company whilst im tinkering. Shes got a 20 soon to be 21 year old next month daughter.

No to having an Ipad lol. Was only a couple years ago I upgraded to a laptop so will be a few years yet Not really a techno person, whilst I understand they have there merits I just use the laptop to surf the web so until it goes bang im not an upgrading type of guy.

Do you know what carbs on it Rich? walbro 199 or not? They suffered accelerator pump issues and start off being tempermental a bit like you describe. Huskys do seem to need more fine tuning for some reason (higher revving maybe) I had an old 61 if the L screw was more than 1/8 turn out you couldn't even start that sucker.

Cheers Spud. I guess if the worst comes ive always got my own 357 I can have a quick look at but by all accounts the bands broken so not really sure what to expect or if anythings are missing in there. Makes sense what you say to do tho. I think /feel it could be more than meets the eye on this one as a broken lug on the brake handle was mentioned and now you've just said that....
-
Cheers Spud, heard you could do it with a big pair of pliers, just sounds like they can be a bit of a sod at times. Think I will hold off til ive got the saw on this one. If anything else in there is missing or broken prob just as easy to get a replacement cover, and if its just a broken brake band will just replace it. Just seem a bit steep at £12 when the 372 is only £8.

Ive repaired the back part before of the clip. It certainly seems to be a week spot on them. I found a bit of plastic nylon and filed it about to make a shape of the original and using a plastic type araldite stuck it in position. Also glued a bit over the top just incase it tried to flip out again. Downside is the top bit would need snipping off to remove the said rod. Replacements tend to go for about £30 but like you say with the labour seems a financial loss.

Got a brake band to do on a 357xp in the next few days. Anyone done one? Cant believe the 357 brake band is more expensive than a 372 band? For a tenner more I can buy a complete cover with brake band fitted but obviously not oe/husky and have a shiny cover bul will it be tat is the question.

This is turning more into a thread of what we burn rather than your favourite 3 lol. Im sure a good fire wouldn't be kept alive on the likes of old stakes and blackthorn etc if we had the choice. Burning cherry seems criminal especially if its wild cherry, makes excellent knife handles etc.
-
Probably been done before but whats your favourite top 3 firewoods to burn and do your customers have different views to you? Seems everyone has a varied opinions but didn't know if there was a general trend.

I believe the standard outside one you want is in the first post then. It should match the original inside one you already have. Just had a look thru my spares but I've just got a new standard inside one like what you will have fitted on your saw. Compared to the oversize ones its 2" shorter in heighth. I know its overkill on my saw but as I say its to protect the base as much as anything as its an early 10mm crank model which is sought after so I try to look after it. 038 for climbing? Rather you than me knowing how heavy they are lol. Be like trying to drag my 075 with 3ft bar up a ladder hehe
-
My dealer works out £437.49 without (12" bar) or the 14" is £15 more Do find them cheap tho compared to most.
-
My local dealers got the 201t @ £512.40 inc the dreaded vat The 540xp @ £524.99 inclusive? Are dealers really charging that much difference between the 2?
-
INSIDE DOG : 1122 664 0506 OUTSIDE DOG : 1128 664 0501 That's what ive got fitted and should be the same fitment to the 038 I believe if that's the route you want to take.
-
These are the oversize dogs on my 044. Each dog is a different part number tho but both oe Stihl
-
LOL cant say ive ever used one but they hold there money and sell for good £££'s so even if its not to your likely you prob wont loose a great deal. Ive stuck big dogs on my 044 as only had a skinny one originally. If im honest half the reason was it keeps the bottom of the saw off the ground so it doesn't get roughed up to bad as much as anything plus it gives it a look of aggressiveness.

Just done a google search, have a look... Blue Morpho Butterfly

Blue morpho I think its called.

Take it they have been delivered to all the dealerships today as my local dealer proudly announced they had them in stock today aswell.
