Reply to my own post: After reading this thread, I thought, what the heck, so I dragged out my tiny old Remington 14-inch saw from the 1970s. I had given up on it ever running again back in the early 1980s, and it has sat in my machine shed, unused, for more than 30 years. So, with nothing to lose but a pint of fuel, I put a non-ethanol 2-stroke mix in it and let it sit for a couple of hours. I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't seen it, but it started up on about the third pull, killed, then restarted on the first pull and ran well at idle and higher speed. Was it because of the 91 non-ethanol? Would 87 ethanol have achieved the same result? Chainsaw gods at work? Simply had a good three-decade rest? I don't know and don't care, but now it runs, to my utter amazement.
