Found a Stihl MS290 Farm Boss at the landfill. bought countyline bar and chain $58 3/8" 20", installed. Saw would idle fine before installing b/c. I never revved it without b/c. Now won't stay idling. Likes to start with choke which is combined with full throttle on this set up. Take off full throttle after 2 seconds and dies and won't throttle back up. I suppose I'll do new fuel lines and filter, then if still issues carb clean/rebuild/replace. Or is it an air leak?

Snagged all this for £120 / $155. The grinder is a 522A (European voltage 511A) with spare wheels. There are hundreds of presets, a half reel of 59AC .404 chain, 150 feet of 22LP chain, a part reel of 21LPX, a part reel of 23RM3 and a breaker & spinner set.

Yep- you suck.
 
Crossed a saw off my bucket list! Traded my Mac 610 for this homelite super xl BIG RED! I need a proper plastic black af cover for it tho. The current one is for sale or trade, old blue metal one painted black. Let me know if you have a plastic one available.
