562 High to filter for 560 .

[spudulike]

The simple way to tell what the air filter and the air injection system does is to tach a saw with the top cover on. tach it with the top cover off and then once more with the air filter off.

 

See where the saw runs at the highest WOT revs and you have an answer.

 

I have done this on an MS200T once and it pulled another 1krpm showing that the air filter does reduce airflow and significantly so.

 

Having a larger airfilter will increase performance and will do more so when it has seen a few hours work when the smaller one would be fully clogged with chip and the larger one much less so.

 

Porting and MMs are all about improving the flow of an engine, the airfilter is another part of the equation.

 

Stubbys saw already has improved flow so reckon the airfilter mod should enhnce it some more!

All of stubbys saws are " enhanced " 3 of them down to spud ( Steve ) 1 down to petemate and one down to the Walker saw shop . Do it ! you know it makes sense

Puttimg the 562XP air filter onto the 560xp and hey presto there is a power increase so the comments made are quite correct.

this is incorrect. nothing to do with space but a decision to consolidate multiple sites in same countries into one single business unit.

 

The spares operation was moved for logistical reasons, reduce costs and to meet delivery targets.

 

Construction are not at stonehouse, this was closed years ago. its in gloucester.

 

Where is Andy White based now then?

[2stroke-ady]

The best part is he was correcting the guy from husky on the history of the company he (adw) has worked for probably longer than ady's been fixing machinery

 

Look its only what I was told by someone who works for Husqvarna at the time. I was offered a job at Newton Aycliffe but didn't want to move up north as it would appear no one from Stonehouse did either.

Cover has to come from America (although now I've bought one they'll probably make it available), whereas the air filter is available to order... Logical!

Thanks Eddy, I'll have look on ebay.
