Does the exhaust port look messed with?

My initial plan was to clean it up and sell it, but after seeing the exhaust port I may have to run it a bit. If I do decide to replace it with a larger bore, I'll send it to you. I have another 365 cylinder that's scored..if you're into repairing those let me know, you can have it.

I'll run it a little this week, between tornadoes apparently..maybe I'll do a comparison with my ported 372. I'm struggling with using some of my good plastics hoard to make her prettier for re-sale

This is my first 242. I cut with it a bit this week, limbing some trees downed by our recent storms. It handles very well, I see why so many like them. I think I've seen more of them in your posts that I've seen in real life!

Some models seem to have better plating than others and will tolerate a light sanding and polishing without revealing the aluminum. Plenty of guys will chime in if you test the saw for leaks then pull the cylinder.

Your offer is very kind, but I'm a graduate of the 'he who smelt it delt it' school...so I gotta try to clean up my own mess. That, and I'm out of boxes[emoji23]

I've got a little exterior scrubbing to do before I pull it, then I'm sure I'll be hitting you guys up for advice about how the clean the cylinder. I know you and @mdavlee to name a couple, have copious experience with this and hope you're willing to share with the village idiot (moi)!

Check for leaks first.

That's done. It held vac and pressure fine. I think it might have ingested something..I just got it from a tree service guy. It runs well, but the filter was something to behold. Although I haven't pulled it yet, I can see similar marks on the intake side of the cylinder. One of my kids busted my comp tester (a MAC no less!) so I'm already a little grumpy..but for what I've got in it, I'm happy even if I can't save the p/c (but I'm gonna try hard). Anybody have a 385/390 recoil?
