Re: [MBZ] Chainsaws

Small engines like chainsaws and weedwackers are way more prone to this than larger ones like lawnmowers. I use my old 2 stroke gas mixed 50/50 with fresh in my lawnmower. I think Kaleb's problem is he bought a cheap saw. My dad bought a Poulin from Lowes, paid under $100 as I remember. Its abo

Re: [MBZ] Chainsaws

The blend is OK if you don't let it age. The problem is greatest in 2-cycle machines that get put away with fuel-oil mix still in the tank or in the can of "left over" 2-cycle mix that gets saved for next year. The ethanol blend is just a lot more "perishable" than the gas of old. I have to won

[MBZ] no-ethanol gas

There was a gas station on James Island I saw the other day that advertised no-ethanol gas, mostly for boaters, it was a fair amount more expensive. Apparently that stuff has destroyed a lot of boat gas tanks and engines. If you live near the water you might want to see if there are places th

Re: [MBZ] Chainsaws

There are stations around here that have banners out front that say pure gas no ethanol. I guess maybe I should try some. On 8/4/2013 1:05 PM, Allan Streib wrote: Fmiser writes: Curious. I run only ethanol blend. Have for >25 years. I use it in all the gasoline powered machines from cars

Re: [MBZ] Chainsaws

We have ethanol in our gas here, but I'm not aware of any place where you can get non-ethanol fuel. I have a practice that has served me well since I lived in more temperate areas - I drain or run the engine out of fuel each time I use it. I just finished cutting the grass between thunderstorm

Not sure what kind of driver it takes, but what you do is adjust the idle and high speed, one screw for each adjustment. Just turn the right one until it runs well at idle and high. Be careful. --R On 8/4/13 1:38 PM, Kaleb C. Striplin wrote: After some research I think I need to maybe adjus
