I am sure you have all experienced the situation when the engine bogs in the cut. I think of this as when the engine can no longer produce enough...
We have to be careful not to confuse chain speed, speed in the cut, horse power and torque. Here is how I think of it right or wrong. It takes...
Might be carbon, try a little brown scotch-brite (350 grit) and some muratic acid. Warm the jug a little in the oven first, I find that warming...
Well, I guess by the vids that Thistle just answered the question, 36 inch bar, big oak, laughed at it, definately a torque saw!
Bryan, you are welcome, it was my pleasure! I thank you for your kind words. In my experience there is not much to be gained by a MM on a 7900,...
Kevin, Randy, Shep, Adam and I were discussing on Chainsaw Repair the differences between the jugs used on the Dolmar and Solo saws. Shep brought...

OK, then how about this, I'll put up a poll, for 5 days, to see if perhaps this was a bad idea. Well given that the option of a 'user poll' is not...
Been thinking about how this member participation build might go. Was thinking that the various choices of components would be divided into...
OBTW, there isn't much in the area of porting that can be done on a 262XP. It is, well it was the first factory produced 'Hot Rod' saw! No EPA...
The factory used two different thickness base gaskets on the 262XP. They actually used two gaskets with certain C/P combinations. If you are...
No matter, it is still $700, there is no room to flip it so you would be stuck with the saw and a green saw at that. Can you spell Kawasaki?
Well Randy cleared up the confusion, and saved me the cost and frustration of trying to get the C/P kit out of Germany, according to Mastermind...
Your HD cover is on its' way!
