I have a husky 353 which is fine. not a pro saw. I probably cut up a cord of pine and 2 cords of oak a year. 353 would do you great. I try not mess around, end of the year I dump out the fuel in the tank, and next season mix up a new gallon.
I have the bar oiler set to max, and I buy bar oil by the gallon. out for half day I will fill the bar oil, fill the fuel tank, and take a qt replacement for each.
new chains are cheap, buy a couple, sharpen them regular, throw them away when they're used up.
my saw must be 10 years old. I throw on a new air filter and spark plug every so often.
starts up real good still. when it won't, I'll buy a new one.
mans life is too short to be tugging on a chainsaw starter rope all day.
