@thendrix How did it die? It could be an easy fix.
@thendrix I don't know why electric chainsaws are so popular. The last chainsaw I was using was a Husqvarna Magnesium block with a 28in bar. I used that and a regular block version. I would swap to the other one when out of gas.
They absolutely rip. I can't say that it's the same savage ripping I've seen a 12v starter do to a steel flywheel. That torque would be uncontrollable.
About the bar and chain oil, use a large plastic container and have the saw on wood over a couple of inches of cheap clay cat litter. Keep purple power or automotive degreaser around with Scott's shop towels. There's no stopping a saw from being an absolute mess.
The 2 strokes are worse because the gas mix will expand and push into the cylinder in the summer. A hydro locked block that has to be drained and the spark plug replaced before it will run again.
Yeah, but with such a simple fix for a simple product you would think they would mention it.
