Yes and use a center drill to drill out all the spot welds. It can be kind of a pain. lol.

Mine leaks all over since I opened it up

I dug out the cat from the backside with needle nose pliers and some patience.

I don't know if it's worth $50 (that's a personal decision), but you could always just snag a PS5100 muffler...

Spot welds?
Just finished the 2nd one but I ain't seen any spot welds yet. Lol

I uncrimp the top and bottom and 1 side then pop it out.
Pia really,I hoped you had a super easy way

 

[jmssaws]

I'd like to beat on the guy that designed those mufflers

I really like dolmar saws but there mufflers will make you hunt for a flat bottle

 

[jmssaws]

I crimp it all back together and brase the seem.

Sounds great CM- that dead kitten recipe is paying off.

It's a matter of fermentation.

They gotta be just at the perfect point of ripeness.

I just grind the spot welds down to get that shield out. Less risk of making a hole all the way through the front cover.

I'm still not following the spot welds
I didn't see any.

I've said too much....let the dead kitten out of the bag...

They're holding the shield that has the tunnel for the outlet onto to the front cover of the muffler.

 

[jmssaws]

Only welds I seen are the 3 1/2" long ones holding the cat in.
I uncrimp it and that's it
Maybe they missed this one.

 

[Miller Mod Saws]

They usually have several spot weld holding on the cat. 4 across the top. 3 on the bottom and a couple in the centerish.

I guess I could dig the cat out of the trash can.m and show ya. Lol. I know there's one in there somewhere.

I didn't remove that part.
I cut the honeycomb out to lighten it and done away with the tunnel.
There great running saws

 

[Miller Mod Saws]

That explains it. Lol.

 

[Greenthorn]

I'm really surprised to hear you say that as there one of the most torquier saws out of the box. Especially a 5100 without the cat.
Now for the torque question. I run a 20" 3/8 bar on mine and from intial cuts this one just may take mine once it's broke in. It'll be close.

Saw arrived safe and sound to it's home!

Congrats on your new little one. Now get out there and cut some wood already!
