Echo CS-7310P Pro Chainsaw: Questions & Thoughts & Things You`ve Done With Yours.

[Snobdds]

Echo are well made saw...I think the 7310 is probably their best saw. It's a closed port saw. Just like the Stihl and Husky pro saw...all closed port saws.

All the other echo's seem to be open port transfer saws. They are less expensive to make and are considered more of a homeowner type saw.

590 open port...

7310 closed port...

Did you ever find a hard-shell case?
Been looking for one for my 620P with 24" bar.

Nice saw, glad you're happy with it. Love my Echo's

I really don't trust the stock Echo air cleaner. It has sealing issues where it mounts to the intake baffle. You have 2 choices, get the 'o' ring kit or purchase the foam air cleaner velocity stack from Red Beard or Saw Salvage.

I just added my own o-ring, but it is definitely a design flaw.

You actually need TWO. One on the snorkel and one on the fixing stud on the top of the stock filter.

Echo 590 620 is a closed port cylinder too. See those upper quad transfers.

Uppers and lowers.

Even the echo 490 4910 501 saws closed port. Uppers and lowers.
