MS462C - 572XP Comparison

[whitesnake]

I can answer that for Randy, it's the Carb, the only carb that fits is the OEM and it is small as hell, hard to make power when you can't feed it the fuel it takes to make it. I have a t4driller ported 5105 and he swears he has more time in the carb then the cylinder, he had to get creative to get it to run but it is a finicky saw, runs stronger then my 346xp that's ported when it's right, but the 346 is about as reliable as a hammer compared to it.

So that's it Randy? The carb? Thought maybe it had a weak link, poor designs, or was a pain to work on etc.

Hey there Mastermind when do you expect to get back on these two saw's?

Probably struggling to pull a 33" bar I reckon.

Yup. The Hooskie 572 only good for 32". 33 puts it over the edge. Lol

Top of the morning boys and girls. It's probably the 462's "over square engine design" that's causing the problems.

I thought it was because of the light weight?

Lol he actually said the 462 is the “peaky” one in his videos.

Calling @AlfA01 . He’s in Greece so likely won’t reply until morning. I think the going rate is $1400USD shipped.

Dont plan on it pulling a 33" bar................

 

[RI Chevy]

Plenty it power to pull the 32, just can't pull the 33. Just too much for it. Lol

Yes.

I'll only run a 25" on it, so I'll be safe.
