  1. you shouldn't be cutting down all those trees in the first place.  and if your going to be hurting the environment by cutting down those trees, then you shouldn't add to the damage by using a gas powered saw, use a hand saw.


  2. I can detect sarcasm!

    Leave the trees, and love the squirrels. They are very good in a stew.

  3. Make sure your chain on the saw is sharp, Barbecue squirrels are excellent, saw takes oil ,gas, enjoy your fire wood

  4. Use a handsaw and with no trees the squirrels will leave!

  5. I have never seen a diesel powered chain saw, so diesel would not work, use gasoline.

    Squirrels are tasty, I would eat them.

  6. No, you probably need unleaded with two stroke oil. The chainsaw will be effective for the squirrels too. Use all that wood for a nice bonfire.

  7. Can't you plug it in somewhere? Maybe there is a squirrel rescue group in your community? If you decide to BBQ them save the skins and make stuffed squirrels to tease the racoons.

  8. I believe that Al Gore's gardener uses a gasoline and oil mix.

  9. I wouldn't do anything, global warming nuts believe that everything will be dead any day now.  So just sit back and wait for this global warming to start. I have been waiting for years now, here in Ohio we have had record cold temps. I'm sick of it!

  10. Oh, no. Don't use diesel. You'll have smog so bad, you'll die before you can get back inside. You should use bio-fuel. Of course, the farmers that planted and harvested the corn used diesel in their tractors to bring you this environmental wonder, but that's not your problem.

    The real problem is going to be getting rid of those dead homeless squirrels after you wack 'em with the shovel. You can't bury them. That would contaminate the water table. I suggest you eat the evidence. But be careful. Farting releases methane. And methane is even more of a greenhouse gas than CO2. Smells bad to, so that would be air pollution.

      Hey, don't forget to recycle the hides. You can leave them in a goodwill box. The old homeless guy who lives in there can make some gloves for when the new ice age gets here, right after the global warming is over.

      Good idea about killing those trees. I heard they can actually f**t CO2. Think I read that in the New York Times. I don't know what you're going to do with the wood, though. You could burn it for heat and reduce the need for fossil fuel, but then you'd be creating a smoke cloud that could cause an increase in the mean surface temperature of the earth, causing hurricanes, drought, flooding, mud slides, earth quakes, tornadoes, sunny afternoons, darkness at night, a global catastrophe. Guess you'll have to eat it, too.

      Better walk down to the store and buy some Tums.

    Good Luck.    Bad Cliff

  11. No diesel fuel is NOT okay to use in a chain saw,diesel ignites on the compression of the gasses while the gas/2 stroke fuel mixture you need ignites on the compression stroke and a spark from the spark plug.Check your owners manual for proper mixture usually a 50:1 gas to 2 stroke oil,also make sure you use the proper chain lubricating oil and fill the proper reservoirs IE don't but the chain oil into the gas  tank (I've seen it done lots of times)The squirrels should leave on there own but hey if you can get them with the shovel your choice

  12. don't even cut the trees!

    ..wait youre doing this for pure torture!

    you meanie :[

    lmao big nickel

  13. A 50-50 diesel/gas mix is ok.   Then you don't need the 2-stroke oil.   I use old engine oil for the chain oil- no problems yet and been doing it for 20 years.   The pink bar oil is just a rip off.   Good luck with the shovel; vermin that size are probably more than a match for your speed and wits.   Get a cat for the squirrels to play with, or the other way around.   Always nice to find a present the cat leaves outside the bedroom door when just waking up.

  14. YOU SHOULD NOT BE ALOUD TO TOUCH A CHAINSAW WITH A QUESTION LIKE THAT....SURE ITS OK..

  15. G'day Busheeee !,.,.,...itz eazeepeazee !....chainies normally run on 2 stroke fuel(my big toothy sod duzz), then use said implement on b*****d vermin !

  16. Diesel will work great for about 2 seconds, then you can spend $500 getting your engine rebuilt.

    Go for it!

  17. Yes, if it's a diesel chainsaw. Get rid of the squirrels with poison.

  18. Only if you are from the south and you love Jayz-us-uh
