Not had much to do on the chainsaw front.

 

Got a mcculloch California in with a cream crackered coil. New one is £60!! Seems I cant get a s/h one anywhere so if anyone has a mcculloch part saw with a good coil I will happily buy it at a sensible price.

Been working on an MS150, it had a 5mm muffler mod so I did a few test cuts in this tune and then opened up the muffler to 8mm and advanced the ignition timing.

 

The mod is worth 7% gains across an average of three cuts, not as much as I was hoping but thats life! Would have been more interesting comparing with a standard saw.

 

Also got a MS362 in for a full porting, this looks like it has a bit left on the table, the exhaust can be significantly widened unlike the MS361. The uppers can be rolled back but almost nothing on the inlet as it is a strato engine and the piston hinders much widening of the port - possibly 0.75mm either side.

 

The lowers can be matched to the gasket and may open up the crankcase to get a bit more flow - a muffler mod should get this saw running with a bit more gusto:thumbup:
