Ms200t Scored Bore

[Nick Connell]

Hi chaps,

 

My Ms200t has a scored bore. Is this wear and tare of a hard working saw or does something specifically cause it? ( like bad mix) I noticed it while trying to sort out my exhaust bolts.

 

Cheers

No, it's not normal, sounds like a major fault. I'm assuming that your muffler was loose, so the saw will have leaned out and seized. If it's scored rather than just transfer, it's a new cylinder job!

How bad is it? Is the bore actually scored, is it aluminium trsnsfer and is the scoring so fine, it doesn't matter?

 

I have salvaged hundreds of saws with transfer on them, get us a photo to look at so a judgment can be made. The loose exhaust may have leaned the saw down or caused debris to enter the exhaust port and damage the bore.
