Half clapped out 036 i overpaid for. Under .020 squish, big timing advance and a muffler mod. Runs a hell of a lot better than it did but still not great. Seems to go fat when it gets hot sometimes.🤔
Well, unwound the spring on the 20a but it was too little tension and would not close the throttle plate when let off slowly. Contacted the seller and their technician said to just grind on it to relieve the spring. Seems a bit rediculous that you would need to grind on a new OEM carburetor to...
Just installed the HE-22a on my 361, same deal although I can get the throttle plate to open all the way as the linkage is shorter and straighter. Pulling the trigger however is absurdly difficult compared to all of my other saws.

KS cylinders usually run a bit better, higher compression and larger ports like you said. I have a KS on my 064 and it runs very well. I ran it for a while with a sub .020 squish and it was noticeably stronger but extremely hard to start.
I usually try to use the orange Stihl wedges but only had two in the van, so I used what I found. The shorty was mainly for keeping it from sitting back then I added the orange wedge to spread the weight and make it easier going. Wood started breaking out on the shorty after a few strikes and...
Not often, if i am wedging in the flare i trim it flat. It didn’t look like i was in the flare but it split anyways, i was surprised. I also thought i was going to have to wedge a bit more than i did.
A memorable one considering the chain and how wood started breaking out the back. Saw is running a bark box and 8 pin, would have handled the chain better with a 7 and smaller dawgs.
