I Ported my 346XP

[spudulike]

Seems like forever since I ported & muffler modded my 346XP (50cc), after recently replacing the diaphragm and taching to 14,600rpm, I had the chance to use it on some unseasoned beech that came my way.

 

It had already been ringed up but needed to noodle it to get it in to liftable lumps to get it in to the car.

 

It is blindingly fast and has a fair bit of stonk now - keep the revs up and it flies through the wood - nice job I think! Will promise to get a vid soon:thumbup:

Yes Jon, I know you want it done...I don't mind tuning up my saws and had a fair few issues with this one - mostly carb related but got there in the end.

 

There are probably others better qualified in the tuning field that will have greater knowledge of tuning saws than me - I know the theory but havent done much of this type of work but if you get stuck, I can give it a port, reset the squish and sort the muffler but I don't profess to be an expert at tuning!

Reckon he could do with getting that squish down - 153 psi is a little low - pulling 170psi on my 346XP - probably a bit harder to pull over though!

Got a vid done at long last, bare in mind that the lump of wood I am cutting is two year seasoned oak and the second cut was full bar length on a bit of wood that just wouldn't stay still , I think it shows what the saw can do in hard wood.
