500i and some black locust

 

My 261 is carb. NIB from ebay two years ago for $400. I know, i know i stole it! My gripe with anything with electronics is expensive repair when it breaks so i was hesitant at first a couple years ago. Now having owned and used them i like it. My 261 is my go to saw as well. 16" bar. Id upgrade to Mtronic if the right deal came along.

 

+1 for the older 261 saws.
I keep looking for another to keep as a spare, if I could find one at a good price.

 

The 20" bar on my 290 didn't have enough reach to get through the last 2 rounds off the butt end today. So the saw ran with a 25" for about 30 seconds.

 

Nice

 

Big block Saturday

 

What saws are those?

 

084AV 661, 462
Started off with the 661 and it got dulled on the first log. The big white oak bark scales were holding a bunch of grit. Lots of sparks. The 404 chain on the 084 held up better. Used the 462 to finish cuts. Had to sharpen them all when I got done. I spent more time sharpening and cleaning the saws yesterday than cutting.

 

Dantcha hate that. Been there done that myself!

 

Not the kind to one up anybody….
This guy was at the top of the dumpster at work today!

And…just tuned a 365 Special tonight after a limiterectomy. Next on the punch list is getting oil to the bar and I may need that worm gear if your done with it.

you do a very nice job on clean up!

 

You have my attention!!

  left a little fat for now with the cover off
  
  it’s not oiling. Worm gear is worn but the adjuster screw is also missing.
  
  Had a weed whacked fuel filter on it. I think that leaned it out. Came to me scored and 100 psi. Cleaned the cylinder and replaced fuel filter, line and a carb rebuild. Passes pressure so I left the seals
• 
  New piston and ring, obviously

 

Plus I clean up good too!!

 

Jk...let me know what you need

 

another reason for me to be jealous!

 

70cc noodle shootout

 

NICE! Who won???

 

Haha The 462 was only saw that I didn’t have to stop and pull noodles out of the clutch cover.
