I’m new. From Nova Scotia 🇨🇦. Love your format of narrating the video and smart to boot👍. I have a 550XPG, 357XPG and a new 572XPG. Thanks for your info.

Welcome to the channel and thanks for watching!

[@hv51000]

Thanks a lot Scott! This was exactly what I was looking for to figure out how to safely remove the fuel lines without tearing them off. Great idea to post react videos on your own repairs :-)

Thanks for watching!

Hi, I really like your videos👍. They're really good👌. Thank you a lot 🤝I wonder if you have a video showing how to change the throttle cable on a Husqvarna 550 xpg mark II. I have seen your video "Husqvarna 550xp Chainsaw Fuel Tank Swap" and it has given me an idea of the process. My chainsaw has heated handles. Can I follow this procedure, and is there anything I need to be aware of?

[@TheGreasyShopRag]

Nothing special comes to mind. Good luck!

[@sambenham8546]

I've seen you using a lot of tools that streamlines your shop... I'm wondering if we could please get a tool list of whatever you are using! I would just search the individual bits I can see like the surgical pliers etc. But dont want to get the wrong sizings! No worries if not!! Thanks, Sam

[@TheGreasyShopRag]

I did do a video on the most common tools but maybe a new one is in order. Thanks for watching!

[@ralphloomis3490]

What is the type of bit you are using in your drill chuck? #4 phillips?, 4mm hex? #27 Torx ? #20 Torx for removal of front rear springs

[@TheGreasyShopRag]

That driver is almost always loaded with a T25 which will turn t27 in plastic and fits 4mm as well. I switch to T27 or 4mm when the screws are too tight.

My fuel tank valve is hissing just sitting, like a whistle noise, 562xp , noise coming from top by carb where hose goes into orange nipple next to long hose that goes into primer bubble

[@job38four10]

I have 2019 550xp bought just before the MKII came out. How often should fuel filters and fuel lines be changed?

[@TheGreasyShopRag]

The owners manual suggests you check them monthly and change as needed. I've seen the number 100 hours used for fuel filter change interval. It all depends on what your putting in the tank.

[@PhillipDrumz]

Is that tank metal or plastic?

[@TheGreasyShopRag]

Plastic.

[@SluSharkND]

Warranty claim? 😁 "I had it sitting on the ground, then "something" happened and the tank self-destructed"

[@TheGreasyShopRag]

If the manufacturer didn't ask for pictures I suppose it could be submitted as a "hairline crack".

[@sting1111]

omg, i backed over my 450 with tractor.

[@TheGreasyShopRag]

@@sting1111 That doesn't sound good.
