5 FS91R trimmers knocked out last night, they all got service kits and the head greased. One needed a new carb. Waiting for spool inserts for the AutoCut 25-2 heads. Also knocked out a service on a KM131R that is just waiting for a top engine cover. Also checked/greased the attachments for the KM powerhead.

You might be the right person to ask Will,
Does a fs250 motor bolt up to a trimmer that a fs130 had?

Craftsman 22 inch push mower. Checked the oil level, was okay so I pulled it over and it felt normal. Tank was bone dry so I put some fresh fuel in it, pulled it twice and it was running sweet. Just need to change the oil, air filter and plug. It's also getting a new blade.

Scored a free early 50s Johnson 10 HP today with 4 gallon pressure fuel tank this afternoon that was supposedly running last year. In the next few weeks I'll get it running.

FS94R got a service kit, guard cleaned, new spool, and the carb adjusted. Was running pig rich at full throttle which contributed to the carboned up muffler screen. Sounds good now. I'll test run it once more and it'll be good to go. Also got a new plug cover which was missing.

Craftsman push mower got an oil change, new plug, air filter/prefilter, and a new blade. Also scraped off the underside of the deck. Letting the oil drain till tomorrow evening and then just need to test run it.

New Echo CS 590

Finished up the 94 and the Craftsman push mower.

Put the tach on the 94 and shes turning 8100 rpm and the max rpm is 8500. Tweaked the idle speed up a bit.

Filled the oil on the mower and she fired up first pull. Ran it for a bit and it ran good. I'm bringing it back to him in the next day or two.

Have two of them to build and a 80 HP Mercury triple as well. And MAYBE if I'm ambitious a 115 tower of power this year Have a video series I'm building on my other channel to "archive" the tear down so me at my advanced age can remember were and how things were situated before the invasion of this old gal's privacy . Actually for a two stroke "officianato" this was interesting as it was a "looper" of which was emerging as the standard in the 1960 into the 70's. And the basic timing arrangement is eerily familiar to the observant ones.

That`s pretty low. Max rpm (cutoff speed) with cutting attachment (mowing head) is 9800rpm.

Thanks. I saw 8500 in the manual. I'll retune this evening

Got the 94 retuned and test wacked and it ran perfectly.

Tossed a new Oregon 91VXL chain on the MS241C-M and made some test cuts. Wow what a ripper! It's setup 3/8 Picco .050 18" and I was impressed with how good it cut.
