Saw builds

[huskyboy]

Snowblowed mine and 2 other nieghbors driveways twice already, going to have to go out again. They got a driving ban here.

Are timber here is very valuable because it grows very slow so it has small growth rings but that also makes it very hard,the pig nut and shag bark are hard to cut down because they kill your chain and that's why nobody cuts them.

Got a lot of walnut in your area?

@jmssaws I suppose that 361 must have exhaust side ring ends? Those transfers are huge

No bottom ring on this one.

Figured something was different she going to fly

Running one ring OK?

I have worked most of the day trying to find out what was wrong with this 361,it was In peices and I didn't try it before I ported it.
I've never ported one or ran one but I knew it was off and I finally found it.
This is a first for me.

dug out too much ?

 

[jmssaws]

dug out too much ?

Not at all,it's a 1/4" thick.
It's a casting flaw and I bet it's ran like *s-word and ate pistons since new

 

[Mattyo]

there is a pinhole in the casting????

 

[Mattyo]

how often does THAT happen?

unsubscribing to this thread the *B-S.... is getting deep in here

 

[Chainsaw Jim]

One question is how'd this get past the dealer who originally sold the saw?

 

[redlinefever]

Almost looks like a crack from there to the intake??

 

[jmssaws]

It's a hole in the casting.
Barely leaks and I'm sure nobody ever noticed it.
It ran ok and tuned and idled good but it was blah and shouldn't be and once in a while it would run away at wfo.
Failed vacuum test bad but had to air it up in a bucket of water to find it.

I've seen a few crazy stuff on a new saw. Some showed up right off the bat on a new start up and some didn't.
One was a ms251 with no piston ring pins. Customer ran it for about 15 min before it caught a port.
