Chainsaw Repair

Well for me one of the very best things about the Makita over the Stihl is the fact that I can set the choke where I want it and turn the ignition on and off as I please!!!!
I HATE having it all in one operation.
(One more of the reasons I would never trade my 9010 for an MS660 but that's another thread!)

About the only thing I know of that somewhat regularly goes wrong with the Makita 540 is the oil line, where it goes through the bulkhead, will shrink over time and leak like hell. Easy to replace the line, they are cheap and the new lines are a different compound that doesn't shrink anymore.
