Do you ever give up! Do you race? Like Clint said it was the only Stihl that won all day! Why are you so adamant about it? I got beet by a saw that a professional ported/fixed. I’ve ported 3 or 4 saws total, I was pretty happy to even make it to the finals.He won on both sides. They switched and ran again I thought.
Sorry. Didn't realize I struck a nerve. I'll gracefully bow out of your thread.
Made the finals in 3 of the 4 worksaw classes but was only able to win one. This was my 2nd racing event ever, guess I could be somewhat happy, but who’s happy with 2nd place. More work to do on my part.
As far as the 6 cube class goes, Clint’s saw is strong, it beat Matt and his TM 064 pretty good to. The 2186 that I’m running I built/ported for a friend. I hate to loose especially to a Stihl but Clint’s a great guy and he deserved it

Did it have that before porting? How wild is the portjob? I assume its been vac and pressure tested after build?
I could use some help figuring out the rich bog after a long cut
Not vac and pressure tested yet. Nothing fancy on the port work.Did it have that before porting? How wild is the portjob? I assume its been vac and pressure tested after build?
It's a rich bog. Puff of black smoke when you gun it after idling for 5 or 10 secondsTiming seems pretty far advanced. Maybe carb is running dry?
Seems that I read something about it, but I can't remember if it was the 562 or 550.Ok. Sorry Maybe an inside carb adjustment?
I remember something about that as well. Iirc it was Keith Gandy that posted it. I think he said something about a plug that could be removed to access the adjustment. I could be totally out to lunch here but for some reason this rings a bell with me.Seems that I read something about it, but I can't remember if it was the 562 or 550.
Nope. I think you're right.I remember something about that as well. Iirc it was Keith Gandy that posted it. I think he said something about a plug that could be removed to access the adjustment. I could be totally out to lunch here but for some reason this rings a bell with me.
Yes sir. There is an adjustment over the left carb bolt on the rear of the carb under a brass welch plug. Drill and pull that plug . It affects topend adjustment and mine ran better on top at 1/2 counterclockwise which richened it from what I saw
