Sure quiet in here !
Well I thought about chainsaws today, thought about how much money I've spent in the last few years trying to put together a set of reliable saws to see out my wood cutting days.

You don't want to do that ! LOL I sold off most of my saws and parts before I moved early last year , had nuff to go buy my Honda truck & put a motor in it a month after I got it ! All cause the radiator come apart , temp thingy didn't work cause it melted ! Gauge looked close to normal in the dash , only cause it was busted . That cost me another 4000.00 on top of what I paid for the truck !Well I thought about chainsaws today, thought about how much money I've spent in the last few years trying to put together a set of reliable saw to see out my wood cutting days.
Motors they use in Japan can be found cheap , but this Ridgeline is not used in Japan ? Motors for them are a huge pain and costly to find !
I had planned to go South for the winter here , but that took to much money , now I am stihl in Ohio for the winter . LOL But I do have a nice new shop to work in thanks to my Sis letting me take over her new garage . It was only used for storage .
First I've ever heard of a Honda Ridgeline!....Not sold here in Oz, what's the thing powered by?
3.5 V6 , Honda Truck/car , not the usual truck , 4 door with fold down rear seats . 2007 model all wheel drive
Nope, not sold here in Oz!......4x2?
Has
Puter controlled 4x4 , not 100% sure how it works . Some how puts power to the wheel not spinning ?
That's the problem with todays vehicles, when something does go wrong where do you start?.....
[Edit] A bit like this dang computer!!
I liked cars much better when they had points and a carb ! Wasn't hard to find out what wasn't working ! Now you need some wild computer crap to say look at thing sensor ! Or your cars computer has a virus ! LOL I do have one of them code readers so I can get some idea where to start . Seems 8 out of 10 times its the O2 sensor ? Car is putting out to much bad air , puter is pose to adjust things so it don't do that . Thanks to EPA saying it can only put out so much of this or that , puter can't adjust to compensate then you have to replace sensors or it will shut you down .
Saws are getting there now with auto adjusting carbs . Seem to work ok so far ? But that is only the beginning !!

Yeah when stihl comes our with the true fuel injected saws there will be many fuel metering solenoids getting replaced once they overheat and ohms drop
