What is your thoughts on this saw? 215 on compression, .028 squish, 96ex, 12o transfer, 82 intake.

Ummmm..........recipe sounds ok. Piston is telling a story. What am I missing? Not knowing the use of saw, something go wrong?

Was used to cut firewood and occasional big wood. Owner wanted a high rpm saw more or less to show off. Saw developed an air leak due to sealer failure and was turning over 15,000 rpm.

I think it is fascinating the wash is stronger on the PTO side. Both sides though are perfect.

Is it me, or does the piston and bottom end look dry?

 

[ELECT6845]

It's dry I cleaned it up. It had plenty of oil on it before I wiped it down. What's your thoughts on the burn? Is is odd that the intake has no residue on the squish band or is that a good thing?

Intake will be much cooler than the exhaust side.
