Chainsaw trad carb or plug in?

Posted by Peter sellers on November 22, 2025 at 12:36pm

We run a few saws Husqvarna and Stihl, all Stihl pro saws are now plug in at dealers to sort issues of which we have one and it's a pain as you can't mess with the carb. Husqvarna have "auto tune" which is also plug in. Now looking for a large felling saw and am favouring Echo 7310 sx as it has trad carb but their largest saw at 70 cc is not up there the Stihl MS500i or Husqvarna 592 xp which are slightly more powerful. Looking to run a 25 inch bar as a minimum which the Stihl will take or can go 28 inch on the Echo and Husqvarna . Anyone got the Echo? We are big Echo fans and run their hedgecutters and blowers which are bombproof. Be interested in others take on this.
