  1. i was thinking of the momentum the crank has that the rod would be bent i only removed a tiny bit off debris from the top of the piston and the crank was able to turn you can still feel the tightness at tdc i dont do tree work full time so although the saw is 6 weeks old it is literrally brand new thanks for the offer on fitting the barrel :thumbup:but i quite like doing stuff like that it makes a welcome change from repairing heavy plant:thumbdown:
  2. do u not need an o license for a mog?
  3. had a look on eblag there are quite a few is there much off a power advantage going from 56mm up to 58mm barrel spudulike have you heard anything like this before also do u reckon the rod or crank will be damaged by stopping dead at full bore i am not too sure i dont have much experience with 2 strokes i only really work on large diesels, if you stopped one of them like that you would be still picking up the bits yet
