    The 046 looked like it had Stihl HP in the tank when I bought it. I dumped that in the tiller and fueled it up with full syn @ 32 to 1. That changed the tune and I had to chase the idle a little bit but now I think it has settled down.

    The 372 is still only on its third tank, and I really like it.

    That 372 sounds nasty (Husq's do sound pretty good ;)) but the 046 was faster. My times were about the same as yours.

    Nice video :thumbs:

    I think that's a 75 cc? Pre xtorq?

    I may be wrong. If it is though, it's only 2 cc's separating them.

    Yeah. KRL has a 75cc. That XPW is a good one. I really hope that there is numerous members bidding on this saw.


    As for Foragefarmer's saw..
    • I was wrong on this one...
    I have been wrong before and will be wrong again.. :)

    Yeah, pre xtorq and 71 cc's. I wish it was an xpw. They must be fantastic, sort of like the idea of turning a 440 into a hybrid.

    We made a big batch of pasta sauce and waiting on it to cook down now. As soon as the baby wakes up I'm going to go run these saws and get a video or 4.
