Guess that is why they are such high comp stock.

Short skirt?

I didn't check to see how close, just that I had no worries.

Does anyone wory about it only havin a single ring? My stihl dealer here uses that against them when someone asks about a Dolmar.

Less friction/heat.

The don't imagine the longevity is much of a factor. Guess the way I see it, by the time a dual ring piston is wore out the jug isn't far behind. Where the single ring jug can go again lol

I was just curious, the 6100 is my first Dolmar, It runs strong, different feel from my other 60cc saws, not bad, just different.

I prefer single ring unless milling.

 

[dustinwilt68]

I just figured my 346xp only has 1 ring and it has been my favorite saw for a long time, so I have no issues with 1 ring.

I find no issue with a single ring at all. I know Brad uses a single ring in many of his Stihl builds.

The single ring saws I've played with had a thicker single ring than the double ring saws. For instance, the 262xp is 48x1.5mm. The 036 is 48x1.2mm.

As long as the rings look ok, I prefer a loose used lower ring and a new top caber. Best of both worlds.

Looking really good Moobs.

The tractor is done.......running like a top.

How about a few pictures?

The muffler on this saw is a lot of the work. Check out this contraption.

What do you suppose is the reason for the tube? Air gap to keep heat away from cylinder?

It continues on into the muffler a little way, then turns down. I'm not sure what they were thinking, but I figure it has more to do with eliminating hydrocarbons somehow than heat.

Is there going to be a thread on the tractor ? I like tractors.

It's a JD 1120. It's got a case of rusty fuel tank. One of the injectors got some trash under the pintle, leaked some fuel into the cylinder and hydro-locked the engine.

Once I was able to get it running again I changed the fuel filters, and ran a few gallons of fuel with Seafoam in it to clean up the injectors. Then I changed the oil and filter, and worked on the intake heater.

I'm just glad to get it back in service without too much drama.

I might just buy a new tank. They ain't crazy expensive. I've been using this tractor for a year and a half at least, I didn't notice the sediments in the bowl till I was changing the filters. Some yahoo painted the bowl. I'll be watching it now.

I was told a quart of auto transmission fluid in the fuel once in a while keeps the injectors clean . Must be the detergents in it ,i know if get it on my greasy hands it cleans them up .Not sure if would dissolve rust chunks though .
