There is another cold weather issue that has been raised in other forums: carb adjustments.

Apparently, if someone adjusts their carb at 70*F, then runs it at -10*F, the denser, cold air has the effect of leaning out the fuel/mix.  Might not be a problem for some, but if they are already running a saw lean . . . . A few posts suggest that this could have led to some lean seizures.

I am not a carb adjusting expert, so others may want to chime in.  If you are a guy who likes to run his saw near the limit, or someone who carries a small screwdriver and adjusts for elevation, etc., this is something you should be aware of.
