Don't feel alone. How is the weather your way? Coolest morning since last winter here....50 degrees.

Real real nice here to weather wise!
I'm going to read this whole thread next week. Need it to be fresh in muh head. On thing Doc said sticks out like a sore thumb to me for about twenty years now. I think a flow bench can find out if it matters or not. Have only read about three or four pages here and there in this thread.

As the owner of said 261, I love that video. I still watch it regularly.

Link?

lowering the cylinder,
shortens ex, and tr, dur
lengthens in, and st, dur

strato is part of the intake process. the longer the strato dur is, the shorter the intake dur needs to be. the more clean air that enters through the stratos. the richer the air/ fuel ratio has to be entering the intake. need to make it balance. the air/ fuel ratio in a std engine is around 14/1. a streato is around 8/1. this is corrected in the combustion chamber when it mixes with the clean air. some of the clean air is lost out the ex port. this is the wedge of air they talk about.

the belief that a strato burns less fuel to make the same power as a standard engine is untrue.it just doesn't waste as much.

the strato timing can only be changed by raising or lowering the cylinder, or raising or lowering the top edge of the port in the piston.

so now you have more questions then I have answered

You can also change strato duration by grinding on the bottom of the transfer port opening.

Is this it?

pretty damn thin spot to be playing

I see that is true on this saw looking back at the pictures. I know a Husky 562 can be ground there a fair amount. I mostly just make sure they open the same from side to side.

Are you measuring and calculating strato duration?

 

[srcarr52]

Are you measuring and calculating strato duration?

I do.

 

[tree monkey]

Are you measuring and calculating strato duration?

yeah, well kinda. 462 is around 160

That is the saw but not the video Ibwas referring too. Search Julian’s YouTube for the CT get together 2017

That 261cm was a light saber!

It still looks like a saw to me.

If you're seeing a lightsaber then you need to share whatcha ya got.......

Is that your 261 in that video?

Sure is.

Don't sip the KoolAid.

 

[maulhead]

Sure is.

I thought you had a arctic 261, the one in that video, is not a arctic. As far as I can see....the 261 in the GTG vid is a arctic.
