Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

[SS396driver]

Well I dug into the 7910 . I’ll try rebuilding the carb if not I’ll just replace but I found several other items that need to be replaced . The manifold boot is cracked and brittle as are all the rubber lines . Never seen ethanol so not sure why .

Any one know a good place to get the kit/carb and the boot ?

That saw is relatively new, isn't it? Surprising that all the rubber is brittle. I personally would go to the Echo dealer. As far as online I'd try HL Supply. I've been happy with them.

I’m looking for recommendations for tool chest liners. I prefer the mat type vs the “Fench Fit” type for things like combo wrenches, screw drivers, ratchet handles, breaker bars, etc. I’ve got decent socket storage but none of the mats I’ve tried have worked very well: Either the entire mat slid in the drawer or the tools slid on the mats. Suggestions??

This is my Dolmar saw not the Echo I bought last year . Think I’ve had it 7 or 8 years . I called a dealer that was a Dolmar dealer he may have a boot in stock

Anyone deal with these people?


They list a new Zama C3M-DM18A carb for $55

Not sure I would want to go OEM if that is what it looks like! That is not real long for "saw rubber" IMO. I've had China stuff last longer!

Stihl OEM is expensive ... but it lasts!

I just used shelf liners like for kitchen drawers. Nothing slides around. And I found red to match the crapsman toolboxes. Some of the more discerning mechanics here may have a better suggestion.

The accessory light on my tractor quit. Jeez after 11 years. Nothing lasts anymore! . Stupid bulb had no number on it but with some help from Google and the guy at Napa, I'm back in business for $2.31.

For .22 pistol, I had the Colt .22 pistol with a 5.5 bull barrel. It was flawless and didn't care what it was fed.
The 597's, I had 2 in .22lr, were picky and would smokestack a round once in a while.

Don't mind the black, it's just dried blood. Snapped the pic before they ckesned it up. Noth the Dr's were very happy with how it looked. Had a hot little blonde thing look at it before the main Dr came in. Daily bandage changes, and I'm allowed to get it wet in the shower and let the bandage off before bed. Warned me about smacking it off of stuff at work, but other then that should be good to go. One more appointment in 10 days, since I was having trouble bending it at the first joint back from my nail. Have some exercises to do to my finger now lol.

Did the same thing to mine right after I got the new head light assembly for it. Big difference vs the oe halogen bulbs.

Feels great today lol. Very glad it wasn't worse.

YEEOOWW!!!! Made the hair stand up on the back of my neck when I zoomed in on that one!

Yeah I was considering that. This light has the switch right on it and it's handy for blowing snow. For 2 bucks I'll keep it.

So what is the back story? I don’t want to do it…

Have any of you folks ever used one of these barrel band type swivel attachments? Gonna put one on the o/u Stevens if they work alright. Just been using a small loop of paracord tied on there now, to hang the sling.

I've got one on my Model 94 (Buffalo Bill Commemorative with 26" Octagon barrel). No problems so far.
