I have a poulan 3800 which has an unplated cylinder. Is there any reason i can't bore it out to its limit? As long as there is a piston to go along with the bore.

In one of the many 262xp build threads there was a post about a fella that wasn't happy with the spring A/V on his saw. There was a response about replacing the spring and other bushings with more solid mounts. I've searched a lot and cant find that post again. Does anyone know of this?

I'm rebuilding a 55 rancher as a trade deal. I went thru the entire saw. Everything that can or was worn was replaced. It is a low hour origanal nice clean saw to begin with . then .... All put back together and tuning screwdriver in hand. No spark. Tried 2 known good plugs. No spark. Unhooked...

Is there a parts cross reference for husky saws? I've been putting off a 359 build because of needing a few more parts and was wondering what cross referenced to other saws. I need a top cover and a brake flag. Does any other saw share them? Are the 3 series like the 2 series and share a lot of...

I'm turning down my ported 55 rancher to .325x16" and using a ported 262xp for bigger wood. What chains are the preferred options on the 16"? I would like to stay with oregon. But I do have a stihll dealer close. Thanks in advance.

I've searched our web sponsor sites and a few others that were recommended and cannot find decals for a 262xp. Does anyone have a good source for them?

Does anyone have actual bar weights comparing the leading manufacturers? What do you have? What does it weigh? And how does it balance on the saw? I know a few ounces here and there sound trivial but at the end of a day of cutting ergonomics plays a big part in either being exhausted or...

Does anyone have or used both back to back to give opinions on? Power to weight. Thoughts in general.. I'm looking at adding a saw to the armory and those two are the ones it has come down to.

I've got a new to me stihl 023 . nice little clean saw . I can't leave well enough alone so... What can be done to this saw?

Howdy folks. Last year I bought a new fs56rc straight shaft trimmer. I decided on this model because I'm not a commercial user but I could still put a brush blade on it. Now I have acquired several kombi attachments that I can't use. Does anyone know if I can change the shaft to a kombi style...

I'm looking for a 359/357 top cover and a brake flag. I have some 359 parts to trade or cash.

I just bought two 359 husky saws from my dealers junk pile. From top to bottom they have corrosion. I would like to think soaking the crank case in diesel or atf and a good cleaning would be ok but that may be wishful thinking. Crank bearings would be OK also to replace. But what about rod...

I was just looking at my watched threads on fleabay and somewhere somehow there appears to be a china clone of some saw labeled as Honda. I'm a huge fan of genuine Honda small engines on things like log splitters, power washers etc... but dang... Is it junk or what? Anyone else see these?

I've read, maybe confused...that a Stihl E- bar is a very good quality, light weight, and cheaper than a Japanese bar. If this is true can I get it in small mount husky?

The add doesn't say about what ring comes with the kit. I'm converting a 261 and want to go with the best. Any other suggestions?

I would like to hear opinions on saws ya'll have worked on. Not a grudge match about brand loyalty, just opinions on saws. Has there been any particular saw that at every turn of the wrench you thought... Wow that was easy. Or ''Cool.. everything fit like it should and the company used quality...

I'm new to the technical,meticulous part of chain sharpening. But so far this thing is great. I know its an older model,but it works well. Does anyone know the features that may have changed from the 108 to the newer?

While im waiting for the holidays to be over and the funds for moving parts to be available again i'd like to get some other "cheap" things done to my 044 project. I can have the cases,recoil,and side cover all sandblasted and powdercoated bright white for free. Would that be too bright next to...

Howdy folks, I'm not new here just haven't had anything to build in a while. I've searched several sites and read all the build threads i could find but. I haven't found a definitive answer on ordering a new piston. Most the builds i've read the op recieved the wrong piston,or are older threads...
