Hi all,
Long time lurker, first time posting.
I'm rebuilding a 395xp for a mate who wants to put it on his chainsaw mill. I'm not planning on doing loads to the cylinder in terms of porting but i was wondering about only using one piston ring to reduce friction and therefore heat.
Is that a completely stupid idea or is it worth a punt? I obviously want it to have a good amount of longevity but also want to make the best saw i can for him.
Id love to know your thoughts!
