Need a new chainsaw and rather not take a second mortgage out...

Saw ethanol free gas at the Marathon in Hampton today.....$3.69 a gallon, but well worth it for equipment use. Maybe check with a local Marathon station.

Thanks I will.

Alot of the stations close to lakes or at marinas have ethanol free gas. Its a pain for alot of folks, including me, as i am not close to them. Do an online search too...

Yeah I just don't see having to drive 25+ miles to a lake in hopes to find gas for my outdoor equipment....but thanks for the help , I will do another net search, maybe diff parameters.

Not sure if you have checked this out:

They show one in Marietta. Maybe that would be closer.

Well, it finally died. So I ordered this one. http://www.lowes.com/pd_498940-8688...RL=?Ns=p_product_qty_sales_dollar|1&facetInfo=
For some reason Lowes doesn't stock it. Anyway, I'll probably jinx myself by saying this so early, but I just used it for the first time today. That thing is a BEAST!
If it last 1/2 as long as the McCulloch, I'll be a happy camper.

I have the same saw and love it. No problems at all and I've used it for 4 or 5 years to cut wood for my wood heater. One accessory that I recommend is chain saw grease. Didn't know about this until a few weeks ago and after using it the first time I was amazed. It can be picked up at Lowes for about $6.00.

I'll do it, thx.

Anyone have any experience with Echo?

i have the 370 echo pro, runs like a champ, highly recommend them, add the HD fix it plan and it's hard to beat .IMHO

Did you have to order the saw as well. It appears local stores don't carry that specific one.
I've never used that grease either. Good to know and I suppose it would make sense. I'll pick up a tube next time I'm in there. Thx.

I bought mine at the Jocky Lot in Anderson, SC. Used to buy all my lawn/yard tools there. Your welcome, might be one of the best $6.00 that I've spent.

I guess you have already purchased you a saw but if not I have a Husky 346xp like new comes with a 16" and 18' bar.

I did, the one above. Only used it a couple of times but so far very happy with it.
That's a nice saw you've got. How much? Post it up.... it'll go.

Y'all be careful with your chainsaws!
