The Official 2nd Gen RAM Forum OT thread
Just cranked out 140 bucks to get a chainsaw carb rebuilt, all fuel lines replaced. (and a new chain...) Thank You whoever decided added alcohol to our fuel was a good idea.
Found a source for racing gas.... 110 octane. It's even leaded. But, 7 bucks a gallon? Nah. I don't think so.

Working on a chainsaw is a b1tch and a half depending on who made it. The saw I worked on was a poulan and I had to almost entirely remove the carb to get the hoses into the gas tank.
You can still do the gas first. Then wait until you're at a friends house to do the engine.
I drove out in to the boonies. (which really isn't that far around here...... right out in my driveway now.....)

I burn thru four gallons every time I mow my lawn...... Been thru five in the power washer already, and I haven't even had it a month. Chainsaws see regular duty around here.... clearing out my dead trees. (though I am running out.... but, not yet.) Not to mention helping a friend do side jobs. (cutting trees.) Just did one today. And now I am paying for it...... Gonna go to bed soon, take some painkillers, pass out. Sounds like a good plan.

True, but, I don't think it will save me anything. If it still has alcohol, it is still going to eat the fuel system at the same rate. Keep in mind, the saw getting repaired has been burning gasahol for ten years or more..... The line in the tank finally just dried up, and fell apart. (saw would run if you held it at the right angle.... but, that is not always practical. )
true. as long as you keep using it might be ok to run ethanol gas. it is just when it is going to sit that you might want to get ethanol free gas for it or add some of the start tron fuel additive like during winter.
