My old 1975 echo needs replaced it is a 452 and I have looked at the Echo cs 400 and it looks like a winner once you fix the lean running issues. although it is smaller than what I usually have had.
My McCulloch was from 1989 or so and was much larger and had much more power than the 44cc 452 saw.
I really hate smallish saws with no power. I have an old homelight from 1972 that would out cut both of them, but finding carb parts for those old saws became a hassle with miss packaged parts that do not fit. Not to mention bars and sprockets are hard to find or very expensive for the odd ball old stuff.
What are you guys running? and how long and hard do you run them, any good new stuff out there that will last like the old stuff.
Are there any chainsaw dealers here.
