    Hi all,
    It’s been a bit since I’ve on the forum. Still chugging away with wood and well set up for next year or 2 for dry wood.
    I wanted to ask what you all do for chainsaw tune up. I have the echo 4920 which is a decent but I don’t think professional saw. I just replaced the spark plug , air and fuel filters. Do you guys do anything else?

    When I replace fuel filters, check the fuel line condition. I keep extra on hand in case it needs refreshed.

    Good to see you visiting the club Steve.

    More or less the same. Digging into them not my thing.

    IF I was ever motivated enough I'd probably clean the inside real good...if that is.

    Great to hear from you Steve. Stop in more often!

    Thanks guys!
    Fuel line looked good. Saw only about 18 months old. Trying to be better with maintenance
