    So, I put a couple tanks of gas through it. Been using it for cutting firewood. It's got power - it sliced right through 25" elm. I started with 25:1 mixed with Stihl premium oil. I thought I would be able to to back off on the oil and after both tanks tried to run it with 32:1. Both times, the...

    The stens boot came in the mail today. Costed $10.99 on eBay. This one feels like a much higher quality rubber than the ft boot. I finished assembly and fired it up! It starts, idles, and oils! Now I'm waiting for the rain to stop before sinking it into some wood. This was my first time seeing...

    It turns out, that the intake manifold boot has a handy little slit in it, so I emailed service@huztl.net with a photo and description. We shall see how they respond. Oh, and I asked my local saw shop what they'd charge for an OEM boot. It was just shy of $50!

    Had a rainy day, so I spent a little time in the shop. I'm pleased with how the project is going. So far, I am using all farmertec, except the OEM gaskets and bearing seals. I just clipped the ears off the circlips and used them. Also, I couldn't see anything visibly wrong with the wrist pin and...

    Here's a real time update to the build. I keep a pretty full schedule and save this project for breaks. I did remove the case bearing seals and flush some shavings out of them, as others have said. The bearings themselves seem fine, so I will keep them and put OEM seals on them. I heated the...

    Yup, I'm planning to freeze the crank and heat the case. If it doesn't work, well, I guess I'll be back to waiting for more mail to arrive.
