I was thinking of trying to use the internal space to create a wider area for the exhaust to flow through some sort of arrester. This way it would increase flow but still have the protection.
I have been wondering if anyone has found, or researched a way to remove the spark arrester screen on a saw, and replace it with something else that will do the same job but allow more flow? I was thinking about those metal scrubbies a lot of people have in their kitchen... there are a couple...
Quite right. This is the only pic I took, and if was to txt to a friend to ask about them. But I looked them over and it didn’t look like any of the plastics had been replaced, and while there was some scuffs there wasn’t and thing deep, it was only surface stuff. Chains on both looked good, as...
I found a couple of these saws at a local Home Depot, and am thinking of getting them if they will give me a deal on both. I would sell one of them though I don’t know what shipping $ would be. If it works out I’d like to get $300 for the saw not including shipping. I’m just checking to see if...
I found 2 Makita dcs6421 chainsaws at a local store... they want $280 each. Is that a good deal?
I know it is compared to a new saw but these were used as rentals. The guy behind the counter was real helpful and said they kept up all the maintenance on them... what is your take?
Ok this saw runs real nice! But... I can’t get it to idle right. I have to give it a lite squeeze on the trigger to keep it running. So I think there is an issue with the carb somewhere. Plus I noticed some exhaust coming out the carb intake when it would die. It’s not bogging out like it was...
The saw still has some parts off it, I’ll post a couple pics soon of the bar, found out it’s the original bar from the factory. My dad has never changed it! So I’ve been trying to dress up the edge a lil so it doesn’t look like it was chewed on. The entire saw is in pretty good shape for a 40...
The only bar that I know will be tough that I have found is the Oregon power-match and this saw came with a 20”, but from what I read that’s the max it could possibly handle.... and I don’t want to go smaller. So I’ll stick with a 20”, but the best $ I’ve found so far is about $55 on Amazon. Can...
Well I got feeling worse today, so did get to spend the time I wanted to on this saw... and when I first looked at this bar, I just glanced over it because that was not my main concern. No flat spots to speed of... but it is pretty beat up. I think if I file it it’ll be ok. I don’t have the...
Oh and from what I can see, there is no impulse line coming out of the carb. I do need to open the carb to see if there is anything obvious...

Thanks, I have been thinking about replacing it, I played with the idea of trying to rebuild it but I think it’ll be better to replace it. I’ll PM you about cost.
