    Found the oil leak, it seems somewhere back in time someone put the long screws in the bottom of the handle mount, one of em punched the oil tank.:mad: Got the first coat of JB weld on it.

    Thanks DRF256, I already have the 395 decomp in it & it only pops when it fires That thin gasket is a bit too much for me tho. Thanks for the info about the coil. I agree with you on decomps also.

    I put this thing into some hard 20'' red oak today, 24'' bar, I may run it as is for a while, it is a strong engine. However it is pouring bar oil out the bottom with the screw turned all the way in & the idle needs adjusting.

    Dukes chain

    I got some 20'' 3/8 blue Dukes chain & put one on 359 I just ported, now this saw has gobs of torque and that chain took full advantage of it, I was ripping some large red oak chunks & that combo just put a big smile on my face. Dukes chain is some good stuff.

    Yeah, I did the ignition too I moved it one fin on the flywheel. I was amazed at the torque, chain was pretty good, 20'' bar in 12'' white oak and I had to pull pretty hard to slow it down. Funny thing, it sat in the pole shed for probably 18 months and when I pulled the muffler it was filled...
