Yeah I put a drop of jb weld on it. Only other mod I have is drilling out the muffler at the corner.The hi-jet bypass won't let you get to 13k... I plugged mine and did a few other mods.

But that should allow it to pull 13k though. I can't understand why it's not.Nice. Definitely a good start.
You mentioned drilling out the corner of the muffler. Did you drill out/remove the internal baffle/restrictor tube? They're really choked up inside.But that should allow it to pull 13k though. I can't understand why it's not.
Is no load, no chain or chain and free spin in air?How many rpms will it it with no load?
NEVER run a chainsaw without a chain, especially if it is modded. It can overspeed the flywheel and/or spin the clutch off.Is no load, no chain or chain and free spin in air?
That's what I thought but wanted a confirmation.NEVER run a chainsaw without a chain, especially if it is modded. It can overspeed the flywheel and/or spin the clutch off.
No load is without cutting wood.
So that's on the outside corner of the muffler? There is a fairly restrictive baffle in the middle of the muffler that is hard to remove. What I do is drill some holes under the deflector--that gives it a straight shot out the deflector, instead of going through the small holes in the baffle and up through the pipe into the deflector chamber.The hole I put it the muffler was up by the chain brake at the corner. I didn't remove anything from the inside.

Nice old saw. The older 8000p had a substantially larger carburetor than the later models. Feeds the saw better after port work.My 1983 CS-8000P. Just got my hands on a 1980 500VL.
Is that the cs351vl version?I'm currently working on putting a 351 back together and have this little part that I cannot find a home for. I know it came off this saw since I only took it apart yesterday...

If anyone has a good IPL available I could use that as well.
Thanks,
