Relax...I was just saying you didn't hurt your saw from running it a bit lean.
The more I hear about Echos the less I want to own one if indeed they are that finicky.

Oh my, bwalker wow! Yep, thanks for stating the obvious that you can't handle echo saws.

A 1/4" turn on a high jet soooooo challenging, and finicky.

Be nice gents.

You're the one who said finicky and weird. I trust you...

Ran saber at 32:1 in the fleet of saws for about 18 months. Would never run saber in the oil injected snowmobiles because I was afraid it would strip out the plastic oil injection gears. It's too thick in the hard below zero temps. It won't pour from a bottle at 30 below zero.

The saber residual in the crankcase of 90 cc and 100+ cc chainsaws was so gummy in below zero temps, the saws were hard to start.

Have always ran the lucas 2 cycle in the snowmobiles because it pours at 30-40 below.

To simplify things, I have been running the lucas in everything: string trimmer, ice auger, brush cutter, snowmobile, and all the chainsaws. Switched in February 2024. No stabilizer in the lucas so have been adding 1 oz stabil marine per 5 gal jug.

Dunno if it's built up carbon or shortened lifespan of saws. One saw in particular: a cs 590 has been run only on lucas since new. I'll pull apart the saw in March post up pics of the cylinder at the 1 year mark of lucas.

30 below zero last February:

Why would you use premix oils in an injection system?
