No worries - just remember to re-tune after modding. Cheers!
Hi Airbmc - sure thing. the muffler opens up easily. I removed the material as shown in the first pic, then I ground the lip off the deflector in...
Wow! All since December! You caught a bad case of winter CAD! Powerhouse line-up there - do the trees shiver at your house when you walk by?...
Yep, getting a little old not being able to get out and do any wood at all. If bored, these are good time to do a deep clean on the saw - pop...
Thanks Thistle - good luck with that drop. Cheers!

Let us know what you find - good luck! Cheers!
New carb - okay. Yes, test the fuel line if you can. Was the old line bad or did you replace to be safe? Still have the old line? Unless...
Saw wasn't behaving this way at all before replacing the lines? Do any carb work when you replaced the lines (cleaning or kit)? Use any tools...
Adjustment of low needle help? First thought is small crack in fuel line - does idle change much if you change position of the saw (upright, on...
