I actually have 5 but will be selling a few…

I've been saying this exact thing about my vehicles. Now I'm at six...fml

Can never have to many! the hard part is driving them all…

I have a 350/346, 350/353, 2 350’s on the bench, and 2-3 in a box ready to be built. You need one?

Didn't think I did but apparently I do. Don't need another 50. Hopefully have a 10-10 and 026 running soon.

Let me know, I can get one together for you. Just sold a 359 which would have been a good 60.

Truth. Sh!tdown and a warm fall has helped with that. Also allowed me to get rid of all those pesky CELs and a few gremlins. Average age is 2004 with a major outlier so that's saying something.

I have a 10-10 that has an air leak I think at the oil tank but need to tear it apart.

It's refreshing to find people worse than me when it comes to collecting heavy metals.

Don't worry, it won't be long and you will catch up and surpass some of us

Don't you say that.... don't you give me hope

When I joined, I was happy with my project 435, 271 and 261, then came along Homelites, McCullochs, Reed-Prentice, more Husqvarnas, a few Poulans...it happened all so fast!!

To make sure I'm following, the jug is the cylinder, the sandwich is where the metal part of the crankcase meets the two plastic sides? I don't have specialty tools or even a compression tester. Was hoping to not tear down past the top end, but I get what your saying about air getting in. Might just throw a cheap Chinese top end and carb kit in it, increase my oil to fuel ratio, and see what happens. Best case scenario it runs. Worst case I paid $75 to learn a lot and am back in the same spot.

I worked that oem cylinder with some 150 and the plating is scored clean through. After reading a sampling the oil threads I'm convinced I should to go from 50:1 to 32:1, especially in this older saw. Wonder if that is what fried it.The last couple times Grandpa ran that saw was with my gas.

If you end up with an aftermarket top end go for the dukes 346 top end they are a pretty nice top end. You have to modify the riser for impulse and clearance the cooling fins on the case but definitely a way better option than other China junk. I have also used his seals before with no issues. If the riser has the coarse thread screws you may want to get the newer style with the fine thread screws but probably not necessary

This is what I'd get after figuring out what roasted it. Cheap and it should give it a lot more zip.
I would've built a 350 hybrid a long time ago if I'd known Duke's sold this.

Won't take long and you'll be looking for places for the next hundred. Then the NEXT HUNDRED and you get the IDEAR.

Kinda fun working on them. Not a whole lot translates from 21st century saws.

Space and $$ limit what I can horde, but I still get the occasional free saw people find in their garage and nobody wants.

It’s not too late, I have a few torn down for you

We may have to work something out if you still have them in a couple months.

Jug is slang for cylinder.

The more I read, the more I think a Chinese top end is what you need. Good luck.
