Ronie's 361 kit saw

[LoneOak]

Did you snap a bar stud, can't really tell by the pic, but it looks like you may have installed the bar studs backwards. If what I'm seeing is strippage from the bar nut, that is a first for me. I have not had that happen to to any of my kits. But I did replace the 'Kit' nuts from my 660 with a flanged nut just because.

That is a very nice saw! Sounds good too!!

Long end went in the case. I twisted the threads right off with very little force.

Them nuts look better than the ones that came with the kit but I'm going to need new studs.

So the nut pulled the threads right off the studd? Damn.

Yep, I just put two AM 660 studs in it and that will have to do until I get some OEM ones.

 

[Ronie]

I ordered some used OEM studs and nuts off ebay.

What is you compression PSI?
I put the studs in backwards.

I'm not sure, my compression gauge needs a new schrader valve.

If i don't use the compression release on mine it breaks starter pawls. Do yoi need to use the CR?

No, but I trashed the first starter I put on it. It's got at least .050 out of the band so it has pretty high compression.

I leaned the saw out to 14,850 WOT and it was a hair bit quicker but now it's doing that burbaling thing after the cut like my 660 clone did, but even more.

@srcarr52 would you mind listening to it and tell me if you think this one has the same problem as the other saw with the pop off or do you think it's something else?

Ok I watched the last video, how'd you fix the burble?

I richened it up, it's faster leaned out but I think it's getting to hot. There maybe a happy medium in there somewhere if I take the time to find it.

I ordered an OEM 390 carb off ebay and when I get it on I'll spend some more time on it.

Sounds like air leak. Throttle rod hanging up?

Saw looks great.

Thanks, I spayed break cleaner all around the back of the carb so if it is leaking it's not coming from there and I vacuum tested it when I put it together but maybe one of the seals started leaking.

 

[Ronie]

Throttle rod hanging up?

and the throttle is working like it should. Since I'm waiting on the OEM carb I might as well do another vacuum test on it this week just to rule that out.

Turned it down to 13,950 and that run on after the cut stopped, it's a little slower than it was leaned out but I guess it's staying cooler and not doing that run on after the cut. That's all I'm going to do with this cylinder and the next AM cylinder I'll lower the exhaust and see how it acts.
