It's been kind of modernized in the sense that it has husky flip caps, and a more modern clutch cover with side tensioner. The wrap handle came today...

Let them warm up good. Those pistons take a little longer to get fully warm.

I am going to make a promise that I WILL get video of the saw running and complete tomorrow!

Yes, they do Mike. I learned that after fiddling with the settings a couple times. It has such a snappy response, it's insane. I'm considering a 372 xtorq carb for it...

Go with the 385/390 carb. Mine likes it better.

Is that every time you use the saw or just the first couple of times?

Every time. They'll smooth out at idle seems like once warm. I was running them in 30° weather too

I really like the xtorq carb on mine. I have a spare 385 carb but so far haven't wanted to change. I have noticed that it likes a higher tune with the RWJ.

Trying to tune for mid 13's was a little wonky, seems happier in the 15000/15500 range. It's an ongoing experiment, if she blows....well I'll start over. Lol

Yes. Don't matter really. The tillotson has a better low end response I think. Mattyo had 3 for sale recently

I robbed the Tilly off my 390. To bad I had to put it back. It's running an xtorq carb for now.

I tried a rwj on my 385 and went back to the tilly. Just a better worksaw with the tilly imo.
