Hello all I have come to notice that my 034 hybrid seems to be having heat soaking and cooling issues when running in longer cuts and it's hot out. Because I'm 98% sure it is boiling the fuel if I shut it off and it sits it will run like crap for a few seconds or will sometimes idle funky for a second or 2 between cuts. I have vacuum and pressure tested with 0 issues along with a oem carb and a china. I was wondering if there is a difference in how well certain flywheels cool vs others. I know the 024 and 026 have differences and I noticed there are several different versions of the Stihl flywheels where the cooling fins appear more curved than what I have. Just curious if anyone knew about this subject or not. But I believe I have a early 034 flywheel. Because it is shaped like this and doesn't seem to have very large cooling fins on it. Now it may just be something I'm stuck with for shoving a a 70cc saw into 56cc cases. Or it may be the low rakered hex filed 325 9 pin sprocket chain combo too.
