Picco doesn’t last too long if you grind on the chassis too much.

That was the first cut

Saw not 100% done.

Duane and I have a great arrangement. My daughter and friends go to Penn State in State College PA. It happens to be 5 minutes from Duane. So he can do some playing and we can send the saw back and forth with zero worry or cost.

It works.

 

[Deets066]

Al, got any other ideas to fix the idle issue?

 

[Duane(Pa)]

That, and Doc gives me free beer and health care. What's not to like!

I hope the health care comes before the beer prescription!

I hope good health comes from the beer prescription!

Fixed, and stuffs.

Swap the coil. It's an inherent 026 thing in some ways.

Saw was a purpose build. A little off idle hesitaion shouldnt hurt the intended use. Plus, adding the 194 back makes it another saw.

 

[RI Chevy]

I got that Ducati coil. I haven't tried it yet. If you're interested.

How many proctology tests do you need in one year? Lol
Just funnin.

 

[Duane(Pa)]

I had time for some vids this evening

I know, it's Pine but hey, I just wanted to play fast & loose...

 

[RI Chevy]

Nice Duane. That thing is humming right along. Have to start asking what setup you have on it. By the sounds of it, the big carb setup. Lol

 

[MustangMike]

Jeff, see Al's build thread.

@drf256 Al worked his ass off to get this setup dialed in. He got it right! We both agreed that it may end up being a little fussy living on the edge. So, yesterday I choked it, pulled it until it popped, choke off, two more pulls and it was running. I never touched a screw all night. It could use the LA dropped a little, as the chain will continue to spin after a cut. The 044 setup worked perfect yesterday. There are a bunch of folks on the forum that gave input/feedback behind the scenes. Thanks to all! It takes a village to raise a badass kid like Chucky...

The tach. Hit 14100 for a max. Like I said, I didn't mess with anything last night. The neighbors already think I'm nuts (?) So, I'll turn it up over at Dave's place. I don't care what his neighbors think...

 

[PA Dan]

Hey Duane did you see Chuckies face in your log?

 

[RI Chevy]

I saw that too Dan. Lol
Sounds to me like that saw would run better with 3/8 full chisel. Was it 14100 in the cut or wide open?
My MOFO 026 was stroking at 16k. Lol. But I don't run it there. Tuned at 14600 or so.

Mike, the saw was a convertible saw. Runs on 2 different carb setups. I could tell it was the 044 setup though.

I ran it at the PA gtg! I was quite impressed with it! It had the 044 carb setup on it then.
