I have had the older version of this one for around 4 years, and it's been fantastic. Mine has a longer beam that extends to the end of the ram. And mine didn't come with the log cradle. I thought i got a deal at around 900. This price is unbelievable. Best part is that the engine is nearly...

260 GT Plus (linked by the OP) is oxygenated. 260 GTX is not oxygenated. I have used the GTX, because i can get it at a local race track (like 8 bucks a gallon). Didn't really like the way my saws ran. Not sure why. Now i get E-free when on road trips.

Ok. Not sure what you mean by (not a misfire). But I'll keep that in mind, and get a coil next, if it comes back. Sent from my VS988 using Tapatalk

I fully intended to get video, after I finished clearing the leaves in the driveway. But the problem disappeared. So, I never recorded it. I'll check that connection. Thanks. It's hard to explain the misfiring. I'm a car guy. Sounds like when a car has a misfire. Sounds like when a 4 cylinder...

AVB. Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, that's not the problem. When not misfiring, it runs at a steady 7200. When misfiring, it's much less. It's clearly a misfire, and not a limiter. Sometimes it will be a single or double stutter, sometimes continuous. So, here's what i've done so far. I...

I've got a 580bts. It's about 3 years old, and it is only used by me, on my property. I'd guess I've got 10-15 tanks through it, so it's not that well used. Recently, it developed a misfire. I'm having trouble diagnosing. Starts normally. I usually let it idle a few minutes before using it...

Decomp valve?

I believe sipes are the tiny slits (like in snow tires), and the grooves are the bigger cutouts. So, these would be grooves. The tool I bought will do either. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

That came out great! I bought a grooving tool. Didn't think of a chainsaw. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

There is nothing near me in MA either. I travel every so often by car, and try to plan out my trips to get to an e free station and grab 10 gallons a few times a year. Sometimes NY, sometimes Canada, etc. I add a stabilizer, and only use it in the saws. I also to to race tracks, and most sell...

I cut the same log 18 inches away from the metal cut, in both directions, and hit nothing (accidentally actually, I intended to abandon the log). So now I have a 36 inch piece half cut. I'm curious what's inside. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

So, i got myself a log truck load delivered, and cut it up in a day. Was mid way through a log about 14" dia with the 562, and felt a very mild vibration, so i stopped, and pulled the saw out of the cut. This is what i found. It was a 68 drive link chain, and i counted 15 cutters completely...
