Couple years ago in 96 degree August weather I was bucking two huge ash trees.Alternating between a 700 McCulloch and an 038 Stihl magnum .If I shut down to fuel the McCulloch I just as well wait 20 minuted before it would start .I really think it was more the ignition than vapor lock .Once it was started it ran just fine .The Stihl always started .

Me and a helper,6 cords,bucked split stacked .Not too bad for an old phart for a days work .--the beer was good too  after the work was done.
