Here's the finished product. [IMG] [IMG]
Now, I used some 150 grit sand paper to rough up the inside of each shroud. [IMG] [IMG] I cut some metal screen to fit into the broken areas....
Ok, I'm sure most of you have seen my thread where I busted my 440's shrouds with my hand when the saw kicked back on start up. If not, here's a...
It'll happen. Trust me.
That is strange. If you were to use the roller catcher, you'd have to ditch the spacers - unless they make a longer catcher to work with them....
I built a small saw recently that had an unexpected comp reading. I used an 026 cylinder and Meteor piston in an 024 Super case. After almost 3...
It is kinda funny how they all say 180
Here's my 260 done by Randy a couple years ago. What's your elevation, Clint? [IMG]
40:1 Stihl Ultra and Efree 90. I use the little 2.5 gal mix bottles in 2 gallons of gas, gives me 40:1. I used to run 50:1 and didn't have any...
You have some very nice old saws there! A couple legends, some might say. The 028 is a great saw. Very durable, they've been proven to hell...
Keep prying, Don :chef:. For what it's worth, comparing my Jred to the Stihls, the Stihl saws do have thicker, more rigid covers.
I would run a gallon or so into your vehicle before you pump it into the gas can to avoid that chance. Where I get my 90 Efree, it's on its own...
No complaining here, Clint. Just gotta learn to use decomp so it doesn't bite back. :saw: This saw just 1.5 tanks after port work. This has a...
Hahah, no need for the massive handle. The saw caught and jumped into my hand - still holding the handle. Like I said, I didn't even know it...
Me too. Apparently, they don't take well to being punched. I was able to pop the pieces back out without breaking any off. I'm going to put...
Oh trust me, I do. I have a habit of not using decomp on my saws and always tug the rope to the pulse before giving them a firm pull. This one...
Enough to do this when you don't use the decomp and it bites back... [IMG] Didn't realize it when it happened. It took me a few minutes to...

I took the saw over to Xskiers place last weekend. He got his 550 to kick the bog and it was running flawlessly. So I did what he did, stretched...
My vote goes to the 545/2252. My 2253 has been a pleasure to run (besides the little bog off idle). My buddy and I are cutting tops from a...
