No problemo Stig. I always (wrongly) think of the Swiss as being included in the EU because they are a part of the 'single market'. And they're right next door to the EU members and on the continent... No offense to your wife!!!

The old Homelite saws were good too. As late as the 70's and early 80's. I wouldn't call them 'pro saws' though. They don't make them in the USA anymore though and the quality on all their products is sub-standard nowadays...

Agree on the Toyota quality/Japanese being more dependable in the late 60's. Two guy's from the USA taught the major Japanese companies about total quality control and just-in-time manufacturing after WWII; I did a thesis on Japanese quality back in the 80's. Look up W. Edwards Deming and a...

Yep. Some of us are getting complacent about it too. We shouldn't accept it. We should push back! We used to have the best quality in the whole world here in the USA. We taught the Japanese how to make quality products; prior to 1980 they're stuff was worse than China is today.

No, the right way to do it is to test your stuff completely before going to market. I'm a retired software engineer and I know a lot about testing. It's the most important part of product development... A lot of large companies nowadays don't do it right! Did you hear about Boeing and their...

Thanks all you guy's for chiming in on this. I'm getting the impression that, maybe, the newer 'Mark II' Husky's are better with autotune than the originals? These two companies really are using us as guinea pigs... I'm going to write them both a letter...

I'm looking at the 562XP as a possible mid-sized saw. It's got a Zama carb (microchiped), according to Husky support. I would prefer Walbro, but it's hard nowadays to get away from Zama... Sounds like yours is running fine though; that's encouraging. I wonder if we can get the software to...

Does Husky have a problem with them? What happened with the one you tried?

Any experience with the Husky autotune saws?

Yeah, my insurance company was pretty good. Better than some I heard about. There were several thousand houses burned in the 2017 fires. I'm rebuilding. Everything I have is new... It was quite an interesting experience - losing everything you own...

I do too! Stihl certainly makes good saws. I had several that burned up in the Santa Rosa fires, along with my house... I'm looking at Husky, and Echo as well as Stihl now that I need to replace them though. Sounds like the new microprocessor controlled carbs are okay.

That's good to hear. I've been hearing rumors about fuel-injected saws for years... I wonder when they'll start offering them here in the USA? Do you have any Husky's with autotune that you use daily?

Anybody have experience with the new carbs on chainsaws? Would I be making a mistake to buy a saw with Autotune?
