If you’re using old oil, definitely, if you’re using modern oils, 32:1-40:1 is plenty. I run everything I own at 32:1 with Amsoil Dominator. If I...
Boat oil isn’t the issue in an air cooled engine. It’s the actual oil itself, Treemonkey runs boat oil in saws, zero issues for him. Being that...
Then I wouldn’t change a thing that you’re doing…
The only thing I would change in your current approach is add the appropriate dose of regular Red Stabil. Project Farm tested its corrosion...
I run a 24” 3/8 light weight on my XS 353/346 or I did before I sold it, to fund an XS ported version of the Redheaded model.
Unless I acquire a bar with a saw, I’ll only purchase light weight bars from now on, to me they make that much difference. Even in a saw as small...
I wish Oregon was still making their reduced weight bars. Don’t care about the warranty either way…
The squeaky wheel gets the grease, glad they finally made it right with you!!! Sadly for them the damage is done and another customer gone.

Carbide will stay sharp longer in clean wood, what carbide sucks at is interrupted cuts, (rocks, wire, anything with a change in hardness) if you...
Running a narrower gauge of chain can cause this too. IE, running a .050 gauge chain in a .063 gauge bar.
It can be welded, SCarr has fixed more cases that should have been thrown in a dumpster than Carter has liver pills… JB weld or the 2 part should...
It’s pronounced Pole-An… Please stop watching Yankee’s pronouncing a Louisiana saw name incorrectly. Poulan Pro is the result of EM purchasing...
As sad as it seems, unless you can work on them yourself all the dealers have us over a barrel. My less than a year old Toro Timemaster needed a...
Yeah, that’s definitely some BS there…
That bar mount is also available from Tsumura as well. I’m 5’9” and despise bending over to buck logs due to back issues. a 28” is my standard...
Paint pens seem to work pretty well, I paint a link on mine for sharpening mine. I have to touch it up every 2nd or third sharpening, but it is...
If you would like continuous duty rolling element bearings to live their expected life, use Mobil Polyrex EM. It is the most factory used electric...
Is the W heat or wrap??? I know some Jred’s heated designation is WH but never paid attention if they were wrap handles…
Can’t wait to run it Greg, not that I needed another saw, but it was just such a great deal and all with the warranty voided…
