Yep it is my first Chunk saw. The jug was actually really nice. The only bad thing I came across was the clutch drum.

Clutch drums, decompression valves and some of the rubber tubing for impulse and fuel lines have been notoriously bad. Things are getting better, once in a while a fuel line will last. Just keep an eye on them or replace them so you don't have a roasted Cat Head.

Good advice Steve, I think I will change all the rubber lines.

I might've went a little crazy with the width of the exhaust port on my 371 but it runs good.

The point is you can open them up some without worry Mikey.
I need to get a couple decent burs for the Dremel. Anybody have any good recommendations?

I think it's probably a wise idea to change them all. I don't want nothing bad to happen to my Cat Head.

Mine split on the filter after around 10 gallons.
Not saying it was bad they had crimped the filter on with a ring.
I changed it to echo 6mm bulk line
That's what I'm changing them all too.
Been using echo about 10 year's no problem.
Stihl's good too just pricey i don't care for husky pigtail line.
Pm me your address i'll send you some.
