Hello guys.
I had this saw ported a few years ago and it never did run right. I was irritated about the whole deal so I threw it on the shelf and that's were it sat until now.
I pressure/ vac tested the saw and it had a bad leak between the crankcase and cylinder (Dirko was used).
Upon pulling the cylinder and looking it over I seen 2 smears of Dirko in the transfer tunnels covering over small holes that went into the muffler bolt threads.
My question is what would be the best way to fix this? Would this area get to hot for JB Weld to work?
Note- The individual that ported the saw is no longer around the forum and it really doesn't matter who it was.
Thanks for the help.
