Saw video thread

I found gutting the tank vent gives them more “breathing room” for fuel too. Learned it from @Mastermind

Cool. Not tried that before. I’ll give it a go. I have a mark 2 550 to do, that’s my own saw. Might try it on that.

How much do you gut them? Just remove all the internal?

I take the vent off the saw (it pulls off with pliers easily after the rubber line is taken off) and from the long end I push out the guts with a wire (or any long thin piece of metal that fits in the hole will work). I remove the white piece and the rubber piece. I reinstall the two sintered filters (large silver one and the small copper one). I reinstall it with a little dirko around the outside sealing area. I find it makes a difference on a ported 572, the stock vent seems to choke it in my experiences. A stock or muffler modded saw I would just leave it alone.

Nice one, I’ll try it. You done it on any other auto tunes or just the 572?

Nice saw. Is it running 3/8?

I dunno, it’s tree monkey’s video, I just reposted it. But I would think so.

 

[pbillyi69]

he said he replaced the sprocket because the other one was worn out. i know its a 7 pin and just assume its 3/8

A wee T540xp. Not a bad saw these, I don’t see much about them getting ported.

357xp. The wind messes with the mic on the phone so it sounds a bit weird. Also four strokes a bit in the cut but if I leaned it out it’s max revs were 16400 I’m not ok with that [emoji23]

Make that chain more aggressive!

Yeah I’m thinking about getting a square grinder. No one doing it over here yet. That’s just Stihl RS straight out the box. It’s only done a few cuts.
