I have a 046 with a broken case, I thought about buying one to rebuild the old 046.

We cut cookies today! I can’t figure out how to upload a video for everybody to see. We had to massage the throttle linkage today. We took the handle apart a bent the wire where it wasn’t popping out if the linkage on the carb. Thank y’all again.

Yes Sir!

Last pic. We put the bar on it today. We will try it out in a couple of days. My old boss man had some hurricane damage and we are going to help him clean up tomorrow afternoon and probably Saturday. Maybe we can try it out Sunday when we get home.

He had them on when he was polishing, he didn’t when he was filing. Two new small engine guys with a cut-off wheel with degrees all over it, a sharpie, pencil, die grinder and a Chinese cylinder, a little metal dust is the least of this saws worries!

Excuse the little redneck in his underwear, but he is working! He says he only has to wear pants when he leaves the farm. I might have let him grow ups little to free. He is smoothing up where we widened the ports in the first photo. You He would not use the big die grinder to cut it. I...

To late Wonkey! I let my son read your post and both of us laughed. All numbers were attained with the no no videos posted above. We watched the other video and found it twice. We printed off another wheel to use two. We used a 0 - 180 to find duration. Then flipped it over to a 4-90s to find...

We did it again. 96/123/86. Squish at 18 on one side and 19 on the other. Put gasket and all 4 bolts. nutball. I think we have twins!

Not very. Doing anything for the first time is all about second guessing! We will try it again. All the numbers are when the ports open right?

Without a base gasket you can’t spin it over by hand. We messed with the degree wheel and got- Exhaust 94 Intake 88 Transfers at 122 Squish is 15 or 16 I don’t know if it is right, but it was a pain until my 13 year old explained what was happening from TDC all the way through. He started...

My son and I finished up our quota for this week. We are gonna try to use that sundial and figure out the timing numbers. I’ll post them up if we can figure it out.

Thanks

Do y’all cut the wings off all the cir-clips or just the farmertec ones. The ones that came with the meteor piston have them. The farmertec ones don’t have any?

I ran 50:1 for years. My saw dealer told me to run 40:1 in my stuff when I bought a new pole saw 15 years ago due to all of them burning up in the area. I asked him about it when I bought this new saw since it was a M-tronic. He told me to keep on. I have an empty can around for some 32:1.

I’ve run Amsoil for 20 years. Really like the saber. I did buy a 6 pack of ultra with the new saw I bought this year. I used one bottle and took the rest back and gave it to the dealer. It stinks! I mean it smells horrible. Thanks for the tips.
