Was the Echo CS-7310P a fad or is anyone running them?

I absolutely get it.

Same reason my newest truck is a 1987 Dodge, and my newest tractor is a 1978 John Deere.

I have a MS362 on my bench right now that the MDG interface will not even recognize. Once I input the serial number, it knows that it is a MS362, but cannot communicate with the control module. Testing the system is impossible without the ability to connect to it. So what can I do? Shoot it with the parts cannon? I normally have a new Stihl of most every model here, but I don't have a MS362 because I don't see many new MS362s since the MS400 was released. So....I can't just swap parts till it fires up. I'm going to see if it will run with a MS400 control module tomorrow.

If you end up needing or wanting a spare coil let me know, I bought a new one testing a 400 I was having issues with and won’t use it ever. Price would be right

Trick question: how many folks upgrade a saw to plastic caged crank bearings? Laughing!

Most have already upgraded to plastic caged bearings.
They came to Husqvarna in 1996, and gradually took over. Nowadays, it is mostly low end saws that use metal caged bearings.

Lack of lubrication and heavy xtorx pistons, and cold pressing of bearings are the main reasons for bearing races.

In addition I lived for six years in far nw Ontario bush.
I am well familiar with snow and cold and have ran saws in it extensively.

Did u turn French Canadian up there, cuz I still won't say fkn crepes

3 years ago I took a screen shot of the prices of a 7310pw: $900 24" bar or $850 pho. Now it's $1200 with a 24" bar.

To increase the price that much, why no walbro carb upgrade? Zama just sounds stupid.

Even though I've seen a zama carb outlast some walbros still..... zama just sound so stupid!

Wtf does zama even mean? Chinese zumba?

So what your say is Stihl parts are good enough for echo and husky? You realize zama is a carb company that Stihl owns 100% of.

This is just giving you a fun jab by the way they still make a good saw just not as cheaply as they did.

Am I allowed to mention the 550/562? Plastic cages work well MOST of the time.
