How to fix husqvarna factory defects on 372 chainsaw

[@jeremyarivett]

I just bought a 372xp and ive been trying to get it to run right something was off with it. So i went on here for help your video was the first one i seen and as soon as i seen it i knew that's the problem so i took a look at it and it was folded thank you

[@tomyousch7070]

Glad to have an expert tell us what’s good and bad with our saws. Thank you Donny, my 395xp is on its way to you. Had it returned from customs due to my mistake.

[@batmantiss]

I had horizontal scoring on my 395xp. It was WELL out of warranty, but husqvarna sent me an entire top end for FREE. They were very kind to me.

[@johnrosier1686]

I am bummed to hear that these saws are having issues. I recently purchased a 372xt and so far so good. I wish this shop was thousand miles closer to my house so I could stop by. Keep up the good work.

Great video Donny, love that you take the time to share X Torq tips and tricks.

[@tonyblunsum2547]

Thanks donny sorted my problem right out !! Dealer couldnt sort it youtube is amazing 👍👍

[@johnm8891]

KZbin sure can be amazing. It's saved my from buying a new $1,000 dishwasher and $100 printer in the last few weeks.

This is fascinating, Donny. I am sure with all of your years of experience, you have seen a lot of "issues" with all brands. Great info!!!👍

Makes all that look like anyone could do this. Man he knows too much. Love it

Thanks Donny for all the tricks you share!

[@jasonpeters4867]

I love your videos Donnie, they're always so informative, keep up the great work.

[@cameronhamer9432]

Bjarne Butler was showing us how those new style air filters let fine dust pass straight thru , can’t be doing the saw any good . I’ve got one of those 365 x-tork put over a 200 hours on it hasn’t been a problem yet , starts cold two or three pulls 👍🇨🇦

mr butler, most famous faller on KZbin?........right

[@stormcrowe9820]

Thanks Donnie, would never have known about this; will be checking my 372. Thanks for sharing.

[@230e4]

Thanks for sharing this information on your channel Donny. The first 372 x-torque I ported had a folded over boot like that. I have fixed several since. I am having another issue with the 365 & 372 x-torques I wanted to see if you have come accross, I'll be in touch with you about it.

[@donnywalker4691]

Sounds good

Hi Donny Walker. Can you put 372 xtourq top end on non xtourq crank case?

[@eurokid83]

Interesting. I’ve got a customer who bought a 372 X-Torque and it doesn’t run quite right. Seems low on power. I’ll have to see if this is what’s going on with his saw. Thanks for the tip.

[@donnywalker4691]

No problem also as those saws break in you need to adjust the carbs right

[@eurokid83]

@@donnywalker4691 I’ve adjusted the carb, just seems like something is off. I’m thinking there’s a good chance that divider in the boot is folded like you’ve shown in your video. That’s my gut feeling anyway.

great information, thank you for sharing sir.

Thank You for information and advice

Great video man. Thank you!

[@selfsufficientmercantile]

Very interesting, but not surprising that the folks at the factories are missing stuff like this. I guess, as a dealer, we just assume things will be right from the get go. I had a 572 XP that had a bearing spinning in the case causing an air leak. We are a Stihl and Husqvarna dealer but mostly bring Stihls in, although I really like the Husqvarnas also. I think the ideal shop carry both. I must be honest that I've steered away from bringing many Husqvarnas in because of getting to the carburetors on the cheaper ones. Lots of times we've had to remove the back handle just to get to the carburetor, also the bottom case seals on the cheaper ones. The pro saws are cool though! Thanks for the information, this is a good place to go for learning something new!

[@donnywalker4691]

We don’t sell many husky smal ones I sell more small Stihl’s and echo there better

[@nebojsamarinkovic96]

@@donnywalker4691 Hello!!! you are doing well!! when the husqvarna 372 rests during the winter what should be poured into the cylinder for lubrication?? should there be fuel in the saw?

[@tomyousch7070]

And are you modifying Echo 620 PW’s ?? Bought a new one and it needs a bit of a boost. We do selective cutting of large and med timber here in northern ca. use the echos for smaller trees and limbing. Good stock, but would like more power and runn cooler. Also echo cs8000’s

Not a problem can take care of them

Donny I live in Pennsylvania and we have wut you call satellite dealers guys that sell saws out of there homes there garage or where ever and all they do is sell them and register them online with a dealer and they don't and will not look at these issues, so wut should these people do if they run into the situation like that ?? Thanks

[@OkanganMadViking250]

hey Donny fast question for you i got a echo 650 evl and in the manual it says 32-1 fuel but i don't mix my own fuel simply never had to do it before. so would running 40 to 1 be a safe fuel mix witch comes premixed already be okay to run

[@donnywalker4691]

40 or 50 to one is good with today’s oils and use hi octane fuel with no ethanol in it

[@OkanganMadViking250]

@@donnywalker4691 perfect 😊and thank you.

[@mattfleming86]

What Mr. Walker said. Even vintage macs and homelites run great on 40-50 to 1 with good fuel and good high quality oil. You will need to retune- but EVERY saw needs its tune checked EVERY time you run it. It should idle consistently and burble a little at WOT when warmed up. Doesn't matter if its an xl12 or an echo 7310.

[@robertclifford1099]

is husqvarna quality control bad compared with stihl?

[@donnywalker4691]

I say yes but very little problems normally

[@kingsaws]

Good stuff man !

[@AndyH-13]

Thanks for sharing.

[@ozarkprepper1718]

Hey Donny,I bought one of those red china G372 non x torq saws from my buddy. It sounds like it has potential to run,but the carb sucks. Will not tune. Should i throw a genuine walbro on it?

[@donnywalker4691]

You need to air vacuum test it a lot of those suck air on the clutch seal and yes carbs are bad on some

[@ozarkprepper1718]

@@donnywalker4691 Thanks. Ill try it. My old 576xp is still rockin.

Donny i'm interested in buying that 592 off you can you sell it?

[@wadebarnes6720]

A couple years back I was at the steel shop in the mechanic was working on my saw and you could hear and cussing all the way up front it was a man up there asked him what was wrong he said I bought that saw and it won't run and he's not been able to get it to run about that time he comes up front and looks at me he says how can I help you I'm looking for a good cheap saw so he gives me the saw he was cussing about and gave the man a new one so I took it it was brand new in the boot was not open at all I had to cut the center out I imagine molding defect but that one was different looking than the one you working on it was a real thin piece but it was all the way across

[@brianquigley7336]

Hey sir, how big of bar can I run on a husky 350?

[@donnywalker4691]

20 inch max

[@Orefamilylawncare]

Wait 4 out of 5!!!!! No way could they be missing that many I mean that's a huge number right. Are the saws having any engine failures from this or just poor operation?

[@jimball816]

what is pdi ?

[@yeahnahsweetas]

pre delivery inspection maybe

[@lancestacey2360]

Thx

[@HenleyHenderson]

It's Stihl hacking Husqvarna's assembly robots 😉

[@donnywalker4691]

Ya funny bud🪵👍

[@acajutla]

They still have human assembly line, and that is where the problem lies. Some people have little sense of quality and pride in doing a decent job, and shouldn't work with anything in fabrication. I have had issues with a Jonsered saw for this same reason, sloppy workers who compete in fastest assembly. Result: the stop switch and wire wasn't connected, and a wire to the heated handle was pinched and broken.

[@backwoodsraised4395]

Cool as hell u cut that cylinder in half for us to see...

[@garymcmullin2292]

with that 500 series saw it appears that Husky is in retrograde for quality.

[@ronsilva516]

It seem to me all the husky are have a lot Issues I mean I look at like this if you go to a use appliance store and if you a lot the same appliance that tells you stay way from that brand or you go to a junk yard and if you see a bunch of newer vehicles there to hurt you. There’s a problem with that Brand all I see is every body rebuilding all these husky saws
