How much heat is advancing the timing gonna add?

Enough to smoke a sausage would be my guess.

I cant find you on FB or Google! Do you even know what you're doing?

I laffed! Why are you guys just trolling his build thread. Lol...

A little. I've gone to far before and recoil parts start breaking if you forget to use the decomp

240 lbs of compression do that

Not sure what it has. I'd guess maybe 210.
Fired it up a few times tonight. Sounds good

I built Walt in Arizona one for high altitude. I broke the whole starter assembly on my test saw. It has one bolt broken already and 3 would t hold that much.

The one I build blowed 225 I think he said

I’ve broke the recoil in my old 385 Mike did last winter twice. Definitely a weak spot imo, using the same recoil pulley/spring as the smaller 372. With a lower compression hyway 390 cylinder and advance it never broke it though. I miss that saw. With either cylinder on it, it was fun.

Luckydad's broke a few plastic drivers and the metal flywheel pawls a couple times in Missouri. And it still does it even now in Alabama LOL

Just so everyone knows, in these work saws, it's not compression that's killing the starters. It's too much timing advance and from not finding top dead center first.


Although be added compression doesn't help matters

 

[Redfin]

Not setting pawls aint helpful eeder.

Ain't got time fo dat

My "new to me" 390xp arrived today! Needs a few things but dang it's everything it was advertised to be. I don't mean to brag, but I've been itching for a 385/90 for quite awhile and I'm excited as hell to address the couple things it needs and try it out!!
