You can run a flat file across the face of the exhaust port, it's usually warped.

Nice, good to know!

Local place is going to get me a ring and gaskets in the next couple of days.

Any specific torque specs I need to follow for the cylinder and exhaust bolts?

They're great running saws. This old girl is completely stock and puts a smile on my face.

Nice!! How do you like that bar? I’m always looking for older stuff to buy, it’s just built better and easy to fix.

They're good bars, I have a few of them that have been used hard and are still in good shape.

She’s back running! Did a base gasket delete and double checked squish a second time through the spark plug hole once everything was together and I’m at 0.021”. Will feed her some tasty oak tomorrow! Thanks for the help everyone!

155 with a little less than a tank and a half. It was actually more like 130 before the new ring, read the gauge wrong.
