    This is a 45cc earthquake I got off of Ebay a while back. Base has been cut, ports widened, lowers matched to base. Very good running saw, only tuned to 12,500rpm and could go higher for sure. Still breaking in, only running one thin ring, and very good compression at that.
    I know my way around metal working machinery (vertical mills and lathes), and I am very, very meticulous. Port symmetry and cleanliness is as good as you are most likely going to find. But, this saw isn't on the ragged edge just a conventional woods port. I don't have magic timing numbers for this saw, it is just a good firewood saw done by a no name hooligan.
    It is a good running saw. It will come with the stock bar and chain. If you can find a loop of PS or PS3, you should have a little lazer on your hands. Muffler is completely gutted, but does not have an additional port- only the factory exit.
    It will pull full comp 3/8 square chain setup for my 262XP, but is not optimal. I was impressed that the saw could pull it as well as it did- but it would be much, much faster with .325 or 3/8lp. Make me an offer via PM please. I would like to see $150 out of it, but who knows. I want it to go to a good home who isn't going to dissect my work or pretend this saw is something it isn't. It is a good firewood saw, and real strong for its size. I hope it can keep someones family warm this winter, or help a blue collar guy make some extra cash this fall. Pics coming.

    The total bar and chain aren't part of this deal. It does look alright on there though :D

    If I had not had a half a dozen of these I might take u up. I find myself wanting to play with mine but it runs fine as is and I actually like running it as is stock. But find myself wondering WHY I have these quakes???

    O man! Well pretty sure the wife would kill me if I dropped another $150 on another saw... She did say for better or worse though! :hair:
