So here is my next problem that's taking lots of brain space with not much result!! What trailer would you recommend for Arb work?! The obvious is Ifor Williams tipper but ITS MEGA EXPENSIVE!!! And I simply can't afford it even though I know it will last forever and hold it's value. So what is our there that's actually affordable? (Will be towing with pickup truck)

I think it more applies to saws that have purely run on 2stroke for a long time and then a shift to Aspen. I honestly don't know much about it apart from knowing of what's happened to others

Had a few friends have saws seize when swapped fuels and a training centre I've visited have a box full of seized saws after they swapped. I geus it's not a 100% definite it will kill the saw but I know it has done to some. Maybe I'm just too careful and precious about my saws

It has been run on 2 stroke for a long time, so if they change to Aspen it will seize the engine. You can run a saw on Aspen and then change to two stroke But you cannot go from 2 stroke to Aspen When the Aspen is used on a saw that has only run 2 stroke then the Aspen can easily dislodge the carbon build up in the engine causing the seizure.

Looking forward to using it with all you guys praising it ! Fingers crossed it runs well. It currently has a battered echo bar on but was hoping to find a bar that might interchange with my 201t , that way I can be happier buying a more pricey bar

Hey, Thanks for taking the time to reply. Have taken your advice and have found the sugi bars that match, thanks for your help, will be interesting to see how it performs.

So I got my hands on a echo 360tes for £50 ! Nothing wrong with it apart from a training company had no use for it due to changing fuels to Aspen. Right place right time Obviously it has seen use. I own a 201t as my main saw but want to use the echo for sub contracting and save my 201t for my own jobs and bigger trees. I would like to change the bar and chain to more well known products for ease of replacement but finding replacements to start with seems very hard, help!! I am also thinking of changing filters and running gear as I would like it to run well and hopefully last a year or two without problems. What would you guys change/ replace? Also where can I get parts from ?!!! Any internet sites I find are American or strange looking. Little recap: What aftermarket bar and chain ? 12" What parts would you service/ change/ replace ? Where do I get parts from? Thanks guys !! James
