When I got my 3120 brand new it didn’t run . The ignition coil was to far from the flywheel . Inserted a business card and tightened the screws and it cracked right off. Made in Brazil
O-boy, I definitely want to see that beast in the wood 🪵! Maybe even a competition between the 3120 and the Blue Blister (alcohol saw) cut’n some of those 2 foot thick logs. Rip, rip, rip it up!
You got it sounding good now! That saw is big enough to have a kick starter on it! The carb is big enough for a vw beetle, keep up the great videos 👍👍💪💪😁🇺🇸😎!
Bought mine in 1998 Had the engine rebuilt under warranty Had the ignition replaced about 5 years later. Currently has spark, fuel and compression but won’t start. I’m not a professional and hardly ever use it. I’ve milled 2 logs in 13 years and cross cut a bit but minimal because it’s so heavy. I really regret buying this saw.
We had some issues with the 3120s when we used them for ripping big logs in half while heli logging. The seams in the gas tank would leak fuel almost from new,might have been a manufacturing defect because a few of them did it while still new. I liked the old 090s or 088s better,slower cutting but it was taking 5-6 hours to cut through big 7foot spruce anyway. Greetings from British Columbia
Not sure of the year but some of those 3120s had and issue , the grease hole on the clutch side went through the crank into the crank case and caused an air leak .
Now that's a husky, I definitely wouldn't mind owning and I'm still on the lookout for one like this preferably not running but as long as it's complete and I'm still looking for zero turn mower that's complete and once again preferably not running also and last but not least a Stihl 088 or MS 880 preferably not running as long as it's complete
Yes I did enjoy that. Runs good and that’s a big saw. I believe if your screwdriver bit was 6 inches longer, that carb diaphragm cover would have been easier to remove. 🤣
it was very informative, good video! That saw sounds badass. I almost got one but it's a little big for what I need so I got a 572xp in stead, I have not run it yet, I had the 550xp out today and that little saw rips
Glad you posted this video, I was just wondering how I was going to replace the fuel line on my saw. Where did you source that line, and what size is it? That thing needs a bearclaw muffler.
Howdy! I just purchased a 3120 and the throttle cable needs replaced. I’m having some issues getting the cable out of the handle. Any advice? The handle doesn’t have pieces to open up like a 394 or a 372….so you can get in there. Not sure how to go about it.
