Mike, I have a 665/675/681 NOS crank here, 675 P/C kits are actually harder to find than the 681! Why, who knows! If I could find one I would try...
OK, Adam, I guess it was a nice idea but no more! Thanks TJ.H
Dex, packed, ready to go! UPS will pick up Monday! Cheers KRL
MM, great idea, unfortunately, I have the crank but no saw to try it out on. I'd do it, but don't have a dolnar saw to try it on, thats why I'm...
Solo piston out of the kit on the left, Dolmar slab side on the right. Oh and the plaques came this afternoon.
Good stuff, Adam. I have a windowed Dolmar 7900 piston round here, I'll compare it to the Solo. Better yet I'll get a picture of the Solo piston...
Spoke to Dexter briefly last night. If time permits, we are going to test the 665 conversion to 681 with the stock windowed Solo piston and with...
Mike good point about Randy's preferences. I'm thinking that the slab sided piston may very well work much better when used in conjunction with...
Both good points! w8ye, OBTW what does w8ye stand for? Been thinking about that since I was on another site, still have not yet figured it out!
OK, Adam, I agree the reduction in reciprocating mass I believe would lead to higher RPMs, but also a corresponding loss in torque, do you think not?
OK guys, time for some advice. Dolmar changed the piston configuration for the 7900 from windowed to slab sided. Most think that the change made...
WOW, that thing is pretty cool!
Been looking for a clean 6400 for a project, sent the guy a note. NH_Wood are you close to this guy if he will not ship? KRL
Agreed, however in 2008 a lot of these folks were in their early to mid 20s!
Edit to the above should have been 601/603 Loc-Tite. It is a bear getting old!
Member JChin is the confirmed winner of the auction. Mr. Chin has decided to have the saw shipped directly to Mdavlee for some extra 'Blueberries'...
I just got a 5100S from another member for $295, very nice little saw. I like to think the 'S' stands for 'screamer' although Dolmar says it...
As long as the 61 coil is a one piece unit, it should work.
Saw Troll commented somewhere that the stock porting scheme on the 385 jug is much better than that of the 390. Myself I don't have any proof.
A 'Dexter Clean Machine' is in the works. It did not make any sense to ship a saw all over hell's half acre! So, the kit is going to be sent to...
