You never know when you're gonna need to fast-rope into a building and start cutting *s-word up.

361C to real saw conversion. Case half must be swapped out. There is no other way or modify the case half.

For the life of me, I can’t figure out what the hell they were thinking with the “C” model for this fine saw. At least this one has the unlimited coil and closed port jug.

The donor. Case half will be headed to the Glock man.

Quick Stop models need the pto case half swap too.


Should of left it as is, would of made a great saw chain test mule.

Checked valves, ok
Muffler isn't carboned up
Confirmed faulty coil this morning. Ran same way as last night with stop switch wires disconnected. Good spark at dead idle but as rpm increases spark becomes erratic. Seems like stuck at idle timing or rev limiter portion of module faulty and engaging rev limiter too early. Started on second pull this morning.
No guard on it, machine is used commercially, I know it's not good to run without guard but that's his choice. I did have it running okay last night. I'm 99 percent sure that the coil will solve the issue. Once coil is on I will load test in the yard.

I have replaced a few coils on those 4mixers.
It will idle but not tune on the H. They would only rev to about 6000 before scattering on the tach.
Find another coil,a set of rings and clean the crud out. They will run right with a coil.
Cut a feeler gauge so you can adjust the valves.

4 mix motors never sound right to me even new.

@backhoelover is sending me a coil and the feeler gauges for the valves. Compression is good and the other day the coil was behaving okay and it ran out good.

Tried something new today on this old 16" Stihl bar. It was super rusty and missing most of the paint so I sanded it down to bare metal and hit it with 3 coats of this high temp engine enamel. Paint should be good to 550°f and the bar would be toast way before then. I'm curious to see if the hard enamel holds up better than other paints. Only downside is that Chevy engine orange is a little brighter than Stihl orange but if it lasts as long as most painted bars it won't be there for long anyway lol

 

[Saw_Squatch]

Just for kicks and giggles I painted the other side with this black metalized engine enamel, What's everyone's opinion on the colors? Like the orange or the black? What if I just leave one on each side and see which holds up better?

I did. Not super impressed. I have a few saws in the 50 ish cc range as well and she's just not fitting in and I'm just not feeling it.

Well that stinks. Blue one would be sweet to go with my 2 orange ones. Gotta save for sausage stuffing though.

Unfortunately deal is done, once I'm done with repairs and testing tuning he's coming to get it.

If you want a spray bomb paint that will really hold up. See if your local napa can mix you their in house single stage urethane. The napa here does the acrylic and it's pretty good. But the urethane is the nuts. Need to use a good respirator not a p95 thing. It's essentially the same paint that would get used in a hvlp gun.
