So I took my plugs out so I could give them a comp test and well yeah I was surprised at the 261 .
The 460 is no surprise that it is rich as it likes to tune at 14800rpm but the hard wood here I like to run it at 13600 to 13800rpm , now the 261 it tunes at 14200rpm and runs an 18" 3/8 chain 36RM if tuned any fater than this i really have to lean on it to stop it burbleing.

Reg carb from back in about 2013.
It was the 1st 261 that Randy did ......

I will have to pull the starter as we can't remember it was 6 odd years ago I think it might be as it will bite if you pull on it like a pussy ......

After a good nights sleep. This morn I wake up and
I’m guessing it was tuned to some fuel in the USA at x altitude, then is at a different altitude and different fuel

Sometimes my saws get tuned up to 3 times a week depending on where I am working and that can be anywhere from sea level to 1000 feet above and also air temperature changes tune
