to all the experts on strokers the subject being timing when i were a lad and had bought an old tired field bike say a kx crosser or down to a ts125/250 suzi me and my mate was taught from an old gent cos we had no moneys so had to club together to by one etc. instead of throwing money at pots/piston/rings front sprocket we use to advance the timing a nudge and lift the carb needle a notch some worked out really well some were still sad and it got me thinking does anyone or has anyone played around with the timing on a chainsaw to get it to torque up a tad" only a thought going through my blank mind lol when a saws getting tuned up or just tired out and no moneys to go all out get new etc i know its going over to a gray area where some think its a no no but has it been done ?? on a saw
