  1. OK cheers I will back L off and see.
  2. Hi, I am sorry this isn't about a chainsaw but I have had such great help on here in the past I think it's still the best place to ask. I have a Husqvarna 122HD60 hedge trimmer. It didnt run so well so was servicing it - cleaned out carb, reset L and H etc... I also cleaned the air filter. it's a sponge one so I washed it very thoroughly and left it to dry on a radiator for 2 / 3 days. It was bone dry when I put it back on. It pretty much fixed it but while I was doing it I noticed that with the air filter off it ran better than with the air filter on. Noticeably faster and more easy revving. Is the air filter no good and need a new one? or is the answer - of course it runs better with the filter off what did you expect? I am wondering what to do. Cheers,
  3. So the prize goes to..... @adw Once I put the OEM coil in it it works absolutely fine. So thanks @adw for taking the time to read and contribute. More lessons learned by me. Amazon cheapo coil on the way back already.
  4. Actually I might sell it even if it gets fixed and still buy the Hyundai.
  5. Don't worry I am very very close to droping the thing on ebay for spares / repair. The OEM coil is the last try. If it ges junked I am going to get a Hyundai 6220. 3 year all inclusive platinum warranty and then if it goes wrong it will go back and I will just ger another cheapo. I am not a heavy user. I could do with a bigger machine cos there is a large oak trunk down on my friends land - about 6m long and about 33 inches across and he says I can have it.
  6. I got some alkylate fuel. I had to get the Stihl one called Motomix becuase all three Husky dealers in a 25 mile radius from me don't sell the Husky fuel. I am not sure how you are supposed to buy it if the dealers don't sell it. Anyway there are about 3 trillion stihl dealers locally (not that much of an exaggeration) and they sell 5l fro £20. OK that price would qualify as a crime against humanity but it's about the same price as the Aspen etc and at least I can get hold of it. I've out it in the Husky hedge trimmer and it's made, in my opinion, a big difference to the starting and running. So I will use it in the chainsaw if that ever gets fixed - still waiting on the part from the Husky dealer.
  7. Yes @Vedhoggar very fair point also made by my brother in law i intend to use super from now on and make sure there is no ethanol in it it lasts longer without going off too
  8. Yes @gary112 you are right i have tried to see this clearly 1) a lot of the mucking cost and fuss is down to my ineptitude - But I wanted to learn and this has been fast learning 2) some of the stuff can go back especially the aftermarket coil which was sold as 435 suitable and if it’s not then they can get stuffed 3) some stuff like a spare carb will be handy to have 4) my brother in law is a big chainsaw man and advice was that the cheap ones are nevet as good as you think they are going to be and stay with Husky or Stihl if I can 5) given 4 being the case then I would have to spend min £250+to get a new one and the repair will have been about £60 6) once this is fixed it’s had such a service that surely it will last for a bit 7) I had an einhell one long ago and it was Thomas Tit but this is the absolute last throw of the dice for it though
  9. OK @adw £39.50 of OEM ignition coil from Husky dealer on its way..... They cross referenced it against the serial number on the plate so its without doubt 'the' coil. Fingers crossed
  10. Nah there’s loads of daft people on eBay who will pay dollar for a knackered Husky? especially if they knew it’s fine pedigree
  11. Ok @adw I am up for it original coil part number 579 63 88 02 number on the back of the flywheel 5802798 photos attached if you think getting an OEM coil is the issue then let me know what you suggest 579 63 88 02 seems to still be available from places
  12. I’ve got so many spares you could build 2 ???
  13. Yes but then it just goes back under warranty and I will get a fair few bob selling the husky for spares/repair -as long as they haven’t read this forum obviously
  14. You can get a 62cc 20inch bar Hyundai on amazon £157 extra chain, carry bag 3 year warranty... yes it’s made in China and won’t be as nice as a stihl but I am just a homeowner this husky is only 4 years old
