Been working on a 254XPG today, dirty but working state, in for a refurb and porting. I have widened the exhaust port by a fair bit, the inlet less so, heavily modded the uppers and just reprofiled the lowers, don't want to hog them out too much otherwise I will lose transfer velocity adn with it a fair bit of torque.

 

Rumour has it that the 254XP out performed the 266XP when Husqvarna designed it so they sleeved the air filter down to restrict it a little....so I reamed it out a little:thumbup:

 

Nice job, looking forward to trying it:thumbup:

Im bored as ive caught up not having been working.

Thought I may buy the odd one and repair etc but people are just nuts on ebay and paying daft prices at the mo for broken saws not knowing if its a simple issue or straight gassed and needing a new topend etc...

Im not entering into the "got my fingers burnt on that 1" brigade.

Treat every spares or repairs as needing a top end and then your never dissapointed. Ive also got no repair work booked in so been helping a mate out whose lad is on holiday, been knocking 6 foot high brambles down all day and will be doing the same for the next 4 days. Give me a bench and a T27 any day.
