I’ve got several XL 900 series, if I have any doubles I’ll let you know.
Sporting the long arm on Doug.
Nice! I’ve gotta get me a 1020/1050 at some point.

Very nice!!!! Love the long bars!
Honestly been meaning to put the full wrap in service lately but I had a couple of saw projects I was finishing up and had to get some tanks of mix through them.
The 1050s with the SDC carburetor run so smoothly and throttle response is instant, I should get them out more, I've looked at another one recently but funds are a little bit tight as far as big money( bills still take priority). I've been nickel and diming some projects together though.
I'd like to try an sdc conversion on a C-72 or similar model just to see how it works out? But finding the little plastic manifold is problematic.
Sometimes I miss Doug. But, I did find a set of dogs for his older brother.
If I could only find a damn muffler cover for Doug! I'd be pleased.
Post a picture of your fancy dogs on that saw.
The 909D currently.
And, picked this 9-26 up.
Have you pressure checked the carb and fuel lines yet?
Easiest way is to pull the filter and work from that end of the line.
Another issue can be a clog in the low side circuit. Often these cannot be cleaned out using solvents alone. You would need to disassemble the carb and pull the Welch plug and use a small wire to clear the passage.
Also, if still trying to locate a replacement carb and not opposed to Walbro, the WJ-27 will work very well as a replacement.
Sorry if someone recommended this already.

Wow. I forgot about that damned thing already! But thanks for the input and reminding me. Went through all that and then some. The 10 buck carb did the trick. Not completely dialed in here but ended up just dandy. Completely forgot I shot this. It will be the last episode. LOL
She's bad.
Oh my. Beautifulness.
Not to get off topic but look at this weird Husqvarna? I picked up yesterday.
Wow, that looks like a gear drive attachment on a SXL w/ bow bar. Very cool[emoji106]

I absolutely know nothing about bow saws, but isn't the chain on backwards?
Hey Clint , don't ya hate it when that happens . : )
Waiting on a little cylinder shield for the 909D so I put some hours in on the 9-26 yesterday. This saw had about as much dust and grime packed around the cylinder as I've ever seen. Took quite a while to clean it out.
