- In this video we will look at a Husqvarna 572XP chainsaw owned by fellow RUclipsr Chris of In The Woodyard. His complaint is that the saw barely runs or is very low on power. Lets fix it! #smallenginerepair

Big fan of the Greasy shop rag and In the wood yard......thanks for the 572 info
Well I'm a big fan of big fans so thanks for watching!
Great video on 572XP husqvarna THE GREASY SHOP RAG. 😊
Great repair, Scott. I remember Chris getting these saws. They are a fantastic chainsaw.
Cheers 🍻 man.
Thanks for watching!
Watched every video Chris has made from the beginning...great guy ❤👍
Thats over 1300 videos!
Great work as usual. When I purchased my 572XP the seller ( 30 years in the business ) told me that 50:1 mix ratio was a bad idea and that such a lean mix would cook the motor. I asked why would both Husky and Stihl and others stipulate 50:1 if it was detrimental to the machine? He said that it was all about European emissions controls and nothing to do with better oils or machine design. This still makes no sense because if saws are getting cooked because of 50:1 ( he told me he had had saws come back cooked after a few weeks due to lean mix ) would that not create a tsunami of warranties which would be a financial disaster. I have been using 40:1 with either Shindaiwa or Husqvarna LS+ through all my 2 cycle engines and have not experienced any problems. He actually recommended 25:1 which I consider to be essentially a smoke machine. So since then I have been using 35:1 which is as he said " better than 50:1.
What do you think?
I won't argue that a little more oil isn't better. BUT, I've never seen an engine "cooked" because of 50:1. Theres always a reason for a failure and most of the time its dirt ingestion or a lean condition caused by or an air leak, not a gas/oil ratio if its 50:1 or richer and quaulity oil. I add that last part because nearby we have a little company called Mercury Marine and a lot of faithful followers. I've seen a few two cycle engines that were roached from using marine oil which wasn't designed to stand up to the high temps of an air cooled engine.
I also agree that these engine manufacturers wouldn't offer five year warranties on their equipment if they knew 50:1 was going to cook them.
@@TheGreasyShopRag Thanks for the prompt reply. You pretty much confirm my thoughts. I'll go back to using 40:1 because I have so many from China that probably need that extra bit of lube. The engine on my leaf blower is twenty years old and still in great shape using 40:1 Shindaiwa. Cheers.
Chris’s trick for measuring firewood with the wire ties is the best one I have found.
I don't make fire wood but it sure does look like a simple solution. When I see stacked wood in his videos it all looks pretty even.
Great video on Chris in the woodyard chainsaw, got it up 🔝 and running 🏃♂️ for him . Little time and parts bring all chainsaw back to LIFE . TAKE CARE great videos greasy 😊.
Thanks for watching!@@leonardryan8723
It's nice to have the proper block off tools
It's the same working on cars. It's always nice to work on the ones that are looked after.
I'd say it was the filter too
It says a lot about the operator when the saw comes in clean.
Nice Thorough Repair Brother 😀😊👍🏼
Thanks, and thanks for watching!
Your videos rock..Thanks for all the time you put in on making these.
Thanks for taking the time to watch!
I've changed or repaired a lot of stihl carbs, that husky look alot more complicated. Enjoy your videos!
They are like anything else. After you do a few they become easier.
Epic video Scott! One of my favorites, thanks.
Thanks to you for tuning in!
Awesome job!
Thanks for watching!
Great job dude...im learning from your vids thanks
Glad to hear the videos are helping!
Good job !!
Thanks for watching!
Two of my favourite channels, I think I will buy some more orange fuel filters thanks.
Orange for regular carbed models. Blue for autotune models. BTW, some newer regular carb models like the 585 are coming with blue filters.
That was extremely informative. Thank you Scott for another great video. I haven't had a chance to use that new spark tester like you have yet, is it helping you out.
Yes I feel it works well. Thanks for watching!
I wish my repairs were that simple. Good job Scott, you make repairs look so easy. Do you get many AutoTunes placed on the Greasy Shop Rag?
Yes there are a lot of auto tune videos on the channel. Thanks for watching!
Good vid. Those Dink knock off filters are everywhere. Im only using the large double cotton Walbro filters from here on. They are more expensive but they never come back.
Yep, buy once, cry once.
Would you happen to know which walbro filter you're refering to? A part number maybe? I'm looking to replace mine in my 572 and want to make sure I get the right one. Thanks!
Walbro 125-528
@@MrRmh3481 Awesome! Thank you!!
Looks like I have a white filter in my saw too guess I'd better swap that out.
Good plan.
❤❤❤
Thanks for watching!
I like your video neighbor
Thanks!
Oh yea i agree that was the filter. I never skimp on filters its never worth the 2 dollars you supposedly save!
Agreed. Thanks for watching!
I was an auto tech. I have seen transmissions changed when the fuel filter was the problem. I always told customers that a new fuel filter every 50k was cheap insurance, much more often for diesels.
Thats good advice. @@jackpoage5419
Hi Great video! Would you mind providing the correct part number for the blue fuel filter? I ordered some recently and they were all white. Thx

@@TheGreasyShopRag Thank you very much! Now I just need to find someone that will sell me a 10-pack for a reasonable price.
That saw is still running. We used it today. Chris's woodyard is my back yard. Im looking for a muffler deflector for a husky 51. The exhaust is hitting on the plastic melting the brake handle.
Good to hear the saw is still going. For the 51, are you talking about the deflector that attaches to the muffler discharge with two screws?
@@TheGreasyShopRag yes the deflector is missing.
Put this item number in your ebay search bar. 404767326222 @@BertsCustomCuts
I got my patrs in the mail. Chris is jealous that I got your sticker. Chris might bring the mac770 for you to look at for me and your more than welcome to use my name in video if you want.
That all sounds good. I was gonna mail Chris some stickers but he said it could wait till we met. For anyone else reading this and wanting a sticker...they are included free with every purchase from my ebay store. @@BertsCustomCuts
I just had to change my micro screen. Fuel is super resinous. 🤪
I suspect a lot of "bad carbs" have been replaced that just needed a screen cleaning.
@@TheGreasyShopRag Sorry, wrong micro screen! 🤣👍🍻
I am going to get a new blue filter before next use. But, that white one did not look like my OE filter.
Except for the color of the barbed end, its the same size and shape as the blue one. What does your oem filter look like?
@@TheGreasyShopRag Whereas the top cap of the new ones you have shown are blue, mine is tinted orange.
or, maybe red, its been a few weeks since I put it away for winter.
Yes. The blue ones are a finer micron than the orange ones@@rooster3019
i dont no about some the filters they are selling.
Who knows. Those plastic ends have to be bonded to the filter material. Maybe there was some goo that oozed out. I dunno.
My 572 was plugs twice what’s up husqvarna?
