Another question - is a Tillotson carb with the stamping - "s260a030" an HS 260 A carb?

 

[Maintenance Chief]

I had a 66 and it was an HS tillotson.

Yeppers. Sometimes the number stampings are not the greatest on the tillotsons.

What is that bundled lumber used for? Never seen anything like it before.

@CJ Brown

I was thinking the same thing.

 

[PogoInTheWoods]

Log siding/structure material.

its called half round machined spruce rails for fencing 12ft long
Here’s a photo I done a job back in the summer where they didn’t want barb wire
On the top of the fence so I put these rails better for the horses and children

@ajschainsaws - In my teens and 20s I built a lot of barbed wire fence, that looks really classy!

 

[CJ Brown]

That's very nice! Learn something new every day.

This question can go many ways. it’s a simple question with many answers. I have a couple of 372 x-torq’s at work. I started playing around with porting. I bought some tools and have done a lot of research and reading. These saws will mostly be ran with 28” and occasional 32” for falling. Here comes the question- what are good port numbers for a good work saw that can pull a 32” with authority?

I'm not a pro porter but I can give you the numbers I used on mine, Ex 99, TR 117, IN 80 with a .040 pop up piston, 390 carb and the dividers removed from the intake. Here's a video of it so you can see how it runs with those numbers with a 30" bar in oak.

In some smaller wood.

Thank you that will help. Did you do a base gasket delete? Without a gasket I have 23 thou of squish.

I cut the base and didn't use the base gasket.

@huskihl made my 2166 torquey

(How you doin’?)

 

[Bryan Marks]

We’ll I guess I don’t have the x-torq. My cylinder looks nothing like that. I’m a stihl guy so I don’t know a lot about husky’s. There 372 xpw I thought that was x-torq.

XPW is the one they quit making a couple years ago. Looks like this inside and is 51.4mm bore

Hey Kevin. Yup that’s the one. Would you have some good numbers without machining?
