I just bought an Echo 2511t clone for $99. What was I thinking?

Did you know you can use the handle on the pull cord to aid with leverage to help loosen the caps:

That method only fits my fuel cap. No problem with just using my finger and thumb for fuel cap. The oil cap cannot be unscrewed without some kind of tool in slot. Tighten oil cap finger tight when I fill oil and cannot break it loose next fill

All these cap troubles….
I don’t have any :unsure:

It is a strange phenomena that happens with the caps becoming tighter after you run the saw. I initially thought it was I was trying to unscrew when the saw was warm, but not so even after letting the saw cool for day or so the caps are much tighter than when they were hand tight.

The only positive I guess is they don't get looser and you start leaking fuel or oil!

So what did you think of the Nano 325 043 in the cut compared to the 3/8LP 050.

Only one smoother is the 1/4" mini micro 043 but it is slow in cuts. But great for pruning limbs on fruit trees.

IMHO Nano best all around on the 25cc saws.

Dont like it on my 35cc top handle though. I tired it and was smoother but slower on it compared to my 63PS set ups. 25cc saws seems to be it's niche

I love it... Completely eliminated the chatter, and the saw won't bind up in the cut. Cuts very reasonably fast. It's perfect for the saw IMHO
