    Huskihl told me you want the plug color like cardboard. I’m pretty sure he said white was too lean. Just from my experience, which isn’t much I think you’re good. I’m sure others will get you straightened out buddy.

    I’ve always heard chocolate is good, ashy is bad.

    That's not bad...I personally would like to see it a touch darker than that...especially if that was from running in warmer weather...if that was from a 0* day, and you did no carb adjustment, I'd say probably not bad overall.

    This saw was bought in July this year and mostly ran on warmer days. Probably has had 7-8 tanks of gas through it
