well ifn we don't hear from him we know he in jail or the ball and chain bopped him due to his exploits lol
 
Well how you guys been today? we just got back in from a family reunion.
 
Well I'm making sure husk knows it....

when do ya run a saw part throttle?

I run part throttle starting and finishing my bucking cuts, watching for the chips to turn color before I hit dirt. I don't like to hear my big saw screaming wothout a load, so I'm part throttle limbing anything under 6". The reason we don't do it more is technology. Carbs optimize at WOT and a given RPM. EFI will be able to optimize power in any throttle position and rpm situation. Shouldn't be scary at all, the throttle response should be amazing

sorry bro I gonna disagree with ya on all .....I'm afraid
 
I get what yer sayin jon but I do it diff. I blip the throttle at the end of a buck instead of part throttle. my saw is never turning not under load. a two cycle only makes power and gets proper lube under power while turning up. efi ok I guess for some, but I don't mind tuning and i'm even talking bout my pick ups. I prefer a carb so I can tune it the way I want.
 
Diesels.....injection pumps....pickups...and cars EFI is cool.. Saws...dont know.. still like carbs even though I dont tune em myself. The carb still is cheap to work on and that is its saving grace. EFI has been around on sleds for a looooong time and works great. But is costly to work on when something fails. Computer controls on diesels are awesome they compensate for altitude, load, barometric, pressure, humdity and rpm. I still like injection pumps.

All that being said.. I can see the homeowners being cool with efi saws cause they dont know any better. I can see tree service guys being ok with them as well and tech type guys that plain old think efi is #####in. But for the logger who treats his saws like his first born...I dont know..
