I cut some stuff today but was too busy being pissed off and surly to snap one for the gram.
Solid ES bar. Nice. Much better than the laminated E bars.New bar and chain for the MS 310. Pretty sure the old bar was tweaked slightly, and would throw sparks out the bottom of the bar when cutting.View attachment 196942
Way to ruin the party... I had them going for a minute.That's just the 50 cc, what you can see at one time, the lie you tell the family so they don't call Hoarders to have a chainsaw episode...
There is. Listen for "four stroking" at WOT. Basically when the saw is only hitting on every other combustion cycle.
Then make a cut and the 4 stroking should "clean up" and sound smoother under load during the cut.
If you don't hear it four stroking at all, it's too lean. If it is four stroking in the cut, it's too rich.
That's the sound you are looking for. Also it is better to be a little bit rich than lean. Running lean can burn up a saw very quickly.I can hear it here, every time he takes pressure off the thing.
I think I'll serenade the neighbors again tomorrow.

Annoying those damn neighbors is one of the best parts of running chainsaws.
For the price, I sure hope so. Those Stihl original parts are pricey around here. Did cut like butter when I went to test it out today, though.Solid ES bar. Nice. Much better than the laminated E bars.
The 028 is a great saw I wish I had one I have an 015 for little stuff and it tends to struggle but it's many years overdue for a rebuild I find it to be physically too small also. The top handle is to close to the rear handleSold a saw today. My Stihl 028, kind of the saw that got me into saws. But I've got enough other 50cc saws and this one hasn't been used in forever. I think I'm down to a dozen or so(?) now.
