Olyman .... he was able to put the carb on under warrenty so it didn't set me back any ..... do you know if we can get Motomix here in the States??? I had bought a 6 pack of Jred oil and only mix up 1 gallon at a time. My problem is I don't cut all the time and like to have gas on hand is I need the saws ready to go a a minuts notice .... for any unexpected weather damage.
Am I going in the right direction by running the saw empty after each use ??? I know the gas has a lot of ethenol in it now and that absorbs alot of water..... but is it true that the oil in the fuel breaks down after 14 days ???
