Morning All......this place is looking a little better all the time......more stuff added every day.......post counts and like counts are back I see.......I would stihl like to look at the bottom of the page and see who's on...maybe that'll be back along shortly.....Actually worked on two saws yesterday!!! One was a 455 Hooski just needed a carb tweaking/chain grinding ......the other was that Oh Turdy Six Pro that I had at the shop forever....I told that tool exactly what he should use for fuel and oil....and that is what I tuned the saw to....of course ANYBODY can follow instructions....so off he goes and buys 5 gal of AV gas and some other (than recommended) oil ....then pizzes and moans to me that it won't idle... ....first I had to clean the airfilter (of course)(sigh) and retune that thing for him...both saws cut well for what they were......once the OH Turdy Six got running correctly it pulled real good.....but it is either coming to a carb kit or fuel line or both......I couldn't get it started without force feeding it some mix.....choke didn't seem to close completely......probably needed to bend that convoluted, pizz poor wire linkage to get it to close fully....ran good though...after a fashion.....

City driving is an adventure. I'll take a dirt road and a slow moving tractor any day.

Stickies.. top of the chainsaw forum.
The pink 650 is ready to go home ! Cleaned out the oil tank,got it tuned in the wood. Running very nice now !
I like my new to me chain grinder ! It has reverse ! Does a better job , just throws sparks at ya ! LOL
The other ones leave a burr on one side , hard to get that off unless ya file it. I can do it without the burr , just takes a long time grinding very very very little at a time. Even with the new grinding wheels. They just don't do as bad as a stone does. Plenty good nuff for who there for ! LOL

Thanks Jimmy!
I use a small screw to get the limiters out on Stihl carbs,just screw it into the plastic till it just bottoms out. Don't do it very hard,the adjuster screw heads break ! I learned the hard way !
Then just grab the screw head with pliers and pull it out. Use a long nuff screw you don't have to pull the carb off.
Works on Eekos too.

Dirt Roads? That's about all our county roads here, and where I live it's sure been getting busy lately.

Well if you find it is a better grind.. I may look at rewiring the "New to Me" grinder here to be reverse-able.
