Not anymore! Got 1.2 cord out of it... BUT, it did make for some really ugly/twisted/knotty splits.

 

How do you like that splitter ?

 

Love it! Haven't hit anything it didn't split. This big maple this past weekend had some big really twisted knotty crotches, I thought a few would give it a problem but she man handled them. But the best thing about this splitter is the work area, no tires, no axel, no nothing in the way to stand and work or to be hit with falling splits. Control is center mounted so you can work form either side, auto return, log cradles on both sides, and I added the work table which is really nice. It's got the smallest footprint of any available H/V splitter I could find. Storage space is premium at my place.

The motor starts right up 1 or 2 pulls, the only thing I don't like is it hunts once in a while. Almost like it can't get enough fuel...

 

Thanks,, I'll try that. Probably doesn't help I added a fuel drain to the fuel line via a "T" and second shutoff after the T.

 

I was referring to the fact I may have restricted the line a bit with the T, L connector.... but I also doubt that's causing an issue.

Since we are talking fuel... what octane fuel do you recommend running in the splitter? Would a higher octane make it worse?

AND, same for saws? 87, 89 or 91...?

 

IMHO, anything without ethanol is best ..............
If you find anything please let me know, as I have resorted to VP

 

I do not know of anywhere you can get e free fuel on LI! I don't think you can. Marine fuel on LI has e in it unfortunately. The Outboard mechanics have spent that last 3 years cleaning out peoples carbs and fuel systems on Yami motors that can't hande it at all.

 

I sure havent found anything at any pump other than 118 low lead
The VP is the cheapest way for me to run E-free .............. I just add some oil to get to 32:1

 

"VP"? and "118"?

And it will NEVER be at a pump in NY, it's illegal for ANY purpose in NY. Some states have provisions for stuff like marine.... but not NY.

 

VP (post#150) in a 5 gallon can. Grainger has them.

118 is Cam 2 race gas. 118 octane, low lead.


Good old NY .............. I cant get my daughter physical therapy, insurance wont cover it - she just got a cast off her arm (wrist to upper fore-arm) .............. but if she wants a sex change, that's covered.

 

I thought I read in the Stihl manual they recommend 93 octane? Or am I remembering it from something else? I read it somewhere recently...??

 

I mix a gallon of fuel half with 87 e free and Sunoco 110 with 4oz of motul 800t at 32:1. That has treated me well but I agree with MasterMech that the lower octane burns more completely and with a tad more energy​

 

Yea, I "LOVE" [insert sarcasm here!] our great state of NY too! Thanks for the Grainger tip, I'm going to give that a shot.
