Going to have to see what else I can get from my Husky dealer . We were looking in the back building today and he has a couple 262's .
I hope you have more luck then me, special if I get one with KS jug, just dont have luck with them.
Somehow, I've never got a toasted 254 jug

I love the 262. It does piss me off from time to time though. Since I've owned it I've lost two bar adjuster bolts... The second one was earlier today... I don't know if I somehow installed it wrong or if the nut is simply worn enough that it's a bit loose. The next one may have a VERY light coating of either RTV or Loctite on it to avoid losing it too...

Did it have the rubber keeper on it?

Those washer's always rot out, SK I wanna try finding a E clip that fits instead. We always called them Jesus clips,because the would hold the throttle cable on carburetor's. Everytjme you would go to put them on they go flying and you would yell "Jesus Christ" because you would lose them.

While I have owned several 2series saws, I have to say my 262 is by far my favorite. It is ported, MM, Squish band cut, Hda87 carb and I run a 18" b/c on it. I purchased a few years ago and shipped out immediately to have it ported. I have owned many 262's but this one is staying where it's at.

My 288XP Lite. Hands down my favorite saw that I own. I have a 262XP also, but I have yet to use it. I just got my replacement tank on a few days ago... As you can see, the 288 is not a shelf queen...

The wood doesnt care if its cut with a shelf queen or a beat runner, it looks fine to me :beer-toast1:
