[DMCForum] Re: Chain Saw Lives (carburetion vs fuel injection)

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Actually the more I used it the more civil it became. By the end of
the day it was pretty much back to its original self, minus the chain
oiler of course (slings copious amounts of oil -- almost 2 quarts per
tank of fuel). I guess that's one advantage of carburetion over fuel
injection -- a carb can unglue itself, whereas fuel injectors have to
be ultrasonically cleaned & flow tested.

In the future I am going to fire the thing up several times annually
just so I don't have to go through this resurrection process again
(unemployed people are surely the only ones with three days to spend
resurrecting a $100 chain saw).

My DeLo is the same story. Have been living out of the trucks for the
past 2 weeks. Haven't even started the car in the interim. But I know
that it will eventually fire on the first key turn and run flawlessly
thereafter. That's why I carbureted it -- don't have the time or
patience to screw around with K Jetronic.
