Terrific answer. I asked because I really don't like adjusting carburators while working with smallengines whether snowblowers, mulcher, lawn tractor, chainsaws, etc. They waste too much time just as pre electronic carbs did with autos (my opinion)!
Husqvarna has one consumer model with Autotune and they stopped the program after dealer push back on the 445 model, yet all the Semi- pro and Pro models include Autotune. So I asked around. Mum until a dealer rep told me the software was pricey so many dealers refused to sell 445 Autotune causing Husqvarna to stop production and revert all include their new 460 to manual Carbs. Few professional repair and dealer on Long Island so the couple who are serious shops told me to go ahead and get one, there are few issues with 445 Autotune. I have a 550XP with Autotune but wanted a spare/change off machine. I did order a new 445 Autotune based on your answer Karla and the one dealer who also ones a couple himself and swears by them. Thanks for your thorough info !
