I have an old 254xp. It’s semi retired as I have three others 550xp, 357xp and 572xp. But I will never part with it. It’s around 30 years old and has never had anything done to it except fuel filter and sprocket change along with chains and a bar here and there. What a saw 👍

[@TheGreasyShopRag]

Certainly its an oldie but a goodie.

[@larrywarner9314]

I agree those were great saws in there time and still for the ones that survived, the 261 262 are great also

[@darrenpierce9903]

[@mikepratt1632]

Great repair Scott! love the 254xp great saw!

[@TheGreasyShopRag]

It seems like a nice size saw for most needs.

[@blaablaahi]

I have a 372xp that is leaking awfully similar to this. Gonna check into it. Thanks for the video.

[@TheGreasyShopRag]

Thanks for watching!

I’ve Had That Issue On a Few Of These Saws Myself 😀 Excellent Job Brother 😀😇👍🏼

[@TheGreasyShopRag]

Have a great day!

[@tedneitzel]

Surprised the little filter piece was still on the vent! Good work as always!

[@TheGreasyShopRag]

Ya those filters tend to disappear.

[@SpruceGoose-qx8zj]

More great content from the guy who's seen his fair share of saws!!! Good stuff Scott.

[@TheGreasyShopRag]

Thanks for watching!

[@larrywarner9314]

Scott I use a locktite style super glue it's a gel style for those tank vents works great

[@TheGreasyShopRag]

@@larrywarner9314 Thanks for the tip. I'll look into that!

[@dujeamizic3588]

Runs perfect

[@darrenpierce9903]

Enjoyed this one. Thanks

[@TheGreasyShopRag]

@@darrenpierce9903 Thanks for watching!

[@larryvankirk7423]

Nice job Scott. Saw is in amazing condition considering its age.

[@TheGreasyShopRag]

It was nice to work on an older well kept saw.

[@rcf8367]

Another great vid & editing Scott! Was that the fuel resistant ‘Seal All” sealant that you put on the vent?

[@TheGreasyShopRag]

It was fuel resistant but not Seal-All. Every time I get a tube of that stuff it gets used up right away. Its a great product.

[@steveriggenbach90]

Great video. Got to ask what sealant was. Looks familiar but can’t place it. Looks like permatex lithium grease.

[@cheba4786]

🔥👍

[@YvesCourchaine]

Hey Scott awesome content!! Really like your tools and tool box setup nice to see your consistent troubleshooting methods. Very helpful for learning. Was wondering where I can get my hands on that nifty yellow fuel funnel you use all the time?

[@TheGreasyShopRag]

Just do a search for "radiator fill funnel" and you'll find many examples.

[@bobwuk3589]

Thanks a lot:)

[@TheGreasyShopRag]
