Be interested to see what you make of it Mike...I have had the PS 6100 in my hands but never the DSC 6421.

A gnarly old Stihl 039. Unfortunately some jackleg did not know how to install a spark plug boot and several other problems.
It's running well now.

Since my names on it, does that mean I can keep it?

Easy there little buddy [emoji36]

That thing has nearly twice as much overlap at the transfers to the case as a 372. I imagine it has enough potential to give the hybrid big bore a serious run for its money.

I think that was the first thing I saw Jim I noticed the uppers are long and narrow I will get some better pic tommorow.

Your first 7900 BB Mike?

 

[Chainsaw Jim]

Could you fit a spring over that screw to help it from not backing out or in?

I ended up finding a few good springs perfect for the job.

They tune up real well. I always run out of carb on them. I've learned more about carbs since I did the last one though....

Mine has a zama on it Randy it may have to come see you.

Rich (Poleman) has those figured out pretty dang good. I'm probably still a mile behind where he is already.

You might only need to drill out the metering seat a few sizes larger to get that extra bit of fuel. And you had to have already experienced this, but fuel tank vents in perfect working order are very restrictive when begged for increased flow and fooled me into thinking lack of carb was the case...which technically it actually was due to that.

I will give him a hollar I can take my time on this one it,s for me.

You're right Jim, I've seen both of those issues already....several times too. It's amazing how much more there is to learn once you start messing with these little engines.
