Cuttin' Fire Wood
 
Well Got Started Today ,,, Saw Wouldnt start ,,, It would run for about 1 second when i soak the Air Filter in Fuel But then die ... It Did the same thing last year coming out of storage ,,, It was a Fuel line Leak , How Do i keep this from happening Next year ?

Me and the Boy Got 1 Cord off the ground and split and put in my bilco doorway (Steps Removed) so we made some progress on wood i already had cut up , Sunday between football games we will do the other 1/2 cord i have down , then 2 more then im good for the winter :)

I heat 100 % with wood

Wood For a Wood Burner For Heat For Me & Mine For Not to freeze To Death

If you drained the tank and ran all the gas outta the thing, it shouldn't be a gummed up carb. Did you put gas back in it before tryin to use it? Back when I worked on that kinda stuff, you'd be amazed at how many people brought stuff to us sayin it wouldn't start and you check the petro and there ain't no petro. :w2:

come on you know there are other ways to keep warm......

A cord of wood is 4' x 4' x 8' stacked, yes wood for a stove or furnace.

I heat 100% with wood during the winter I will burn between 5-6 cords a year.:w2:

There is no heat like wood heat!

Don't know what to tell you about your saw, I bought a brand new Stihl 390 with a 24" bar last year, excellent saw for firewood, have a 28" bar and it looks like I am going to need it this year.

I also have a Stihl 075 AV about 30 years old that can be a pain, doing a total rebuild on it right now. But when it comes to the big wood there is nothing like it for cutting (I have 32" to 48" bars for that.):U:

Yes i put Fuel in it , And Pulled on it for 30 mins When putting fuel directly into the carb it runs for a second then dies Its not getting any fuel I may try to fix it my self maybe put a pusher pump on it i have a carter on the shelf That will get its Turbo Going ...lol

I only use about 4 Cords My Stove has a Catalytic Combuster It Reburns The Smoke and gets every last drop of BTU's from the wood Its a nice set up :)

I prefer Maple , Oak , Cherry , Locus
