Hi all,
I'm wanting to know why the Husqvarna 254xp had two different style start covers, I have a 254xp I'm doing up and need a start cover and just wondering what one I need. was it simply that some had air injection and some don't? Or it was an older and newer thing? As far as I am aware both types are the same outside shape to fit the saw just different on the side with the sticker. Attached pictures are for example and are not mine.

Thanks.

Okay, so the Husqvarna 254xp saw got a couple of different start covers over its life because they tweaked the model and had to meet rules about emissions. The newer saws with air injection needed a special cover to fit that new tech. Basically, if your saw has air injection, grab the newer cover. If it doesn't, the old one should work just fine.
