  I was recently reminded of why I don&apos;t lend out tools, even to someone that is experienced at what they do. When it&apos;s not yours (oftentimes) it is not treated the same. <br>In this case, the person just didn&apos;t know that you cannot run straight gas in the saw. But when they go to such great lengths to make it right, you know they are good people!

  For a guy who works on generators you sure did a nice easy job on that saw

  Keep in mind: when you loan a tool you are giving it away, you only have a promise it will return the same, if at all; and a promise is a comfort to a fool.

  <i>&quot;I hope this video helped someone.&quot;</i> &nbsp;I&apos;m confident it did with many re: mechanical repairs—but in my case it did/does for another reason. Because my &quot;chainsaw use&quot; and subsequent &quot;repair days&quot; are behind, your videos simply make for a more enjoyable day. Thanks James—God bless.

  Wish we had youtube and content like this when i was a kid and trying to get the family&apos;s push mower going. Luckly i had a kind elder gentleman that went above and beyound to teach me and keep that mower going. That was 48 years ago, but still remember him and his kind ways.

  I&apos;m a technician for factory owned branch of the BIG EVIL tool company and I have taken away more knowledge and skills from watching your videos than 15 years of working for this company. THANK YOU!

  HI James, good video. The friend did try to make things right, that counts for a lot. I lent one of my saws to my neighbor and it never ran again, he fried the mag. he never made good on it.<br>I don&apos;t lend anything to anyone anymore.<br>Rich

  James, &nbsp;you deserve a high paying show on discovery or something. &nbsp; &nbsp;Excellent narration, logical, &nbsp;no music (so nice!). &nbsp; You &nbsp;are a great teacher, not to mention your mech/tech skills! &nbsp;Thanks you very much!!

  I have learned so much concerning small engine diagnostics and repair from your channel. Your no nonsence straight forward approach is refreshing and I wanted to thank you for sharing your knowledge with anyone who will pay attention.<br>I have also purchased several needed tools, that i did not &quot;know&quot; I needed until after i watched you making the task easier.<br>Once again Thanks!
