@livemusic simple answer to your question about returning the saw: "Would you purchase a saw as new that someone else had tried out and returned?"

Where are y'all buying these bars?

I got some 3/8LP. Haven't run it yet, but it will be sharpened with a 5/32" round file when the time comes.

Who's Duke?

Note that the OP is in Canada. Have no idea on exchange rates, etc.

How in hell do you figure out what to buy and how to order?

"A little harder". Mine's border line impossible. Saw is rarely used as it's such a beast to pull.

If they wouldn't buy Stihl what were they buying?

The power improvement sounds really interesting, but to do it I'd be dropping more $ than I paid for the saw. For the amount of use I'll give it i can't justify the investment. When I need more I'll pull out one of the 036Pro's. Like to have a Stihl 400 as a bigger saw but again can't justify...

So, what's the difference between the 4910 and the 4920? Actual improvement? I'm just starting down the path with my 4910, like it so far after a couple tanks but haven't made any mods as yet.

Appears it was the gas cap.

If you're fond of the FG2, maybe have some replacement bushings made (I'd get a couple, setup would be the biggest cost). The FG2 is still sold in Europe I believe so a member there might be able to help with parts. Granberg or Tecomac bar mounts are a similar option.

One of my 036's suddenly has a gas leak. I haven't had time to try to pinpoint where as yet. Any common leakage sites I should be looking at? Looks like the tank is part of a handle assembly if that's the issue. How expensive are those? Hard to replace? Thanks for any ideas.

So, post "best I've found with google is $??, anyone know of a better deal?" Reckon that commonsense suggestion counts as more bs to you.

My first was a Jonsereds 49SP bought in '81. We got an Echo 290 a couple years later as the wife wanted a saw she could run. That was it until the late '90s and took care of a lot of firewood for us. Last 20-25 years I've picked up "a few" more.

Can't be bothered to google for yourself? Really frugal saving them electrons for later use.

I'm not sure how to interpret this?

I'm not a Husky guy so that doesn't help. Any chance of a part number? Or at least a Husky model number to start from? TIA

372XP part number looks to be 584288701. Black top, not blue so I'm confused. Assume the Husky decomp would work on a 036 pro as well?

What size PVC did you use? Saw blade width? Looks like a great idea, thanks for sharing.
