  8. Think you will find that hoppus...
  9. Whilst usin the saw a few weeks back when i pulled the bar from a big log it would raise the revs slightly on every tug. It continued to run ok thankfully as the oak was 5ft in the rd! I put it away and dug out 4 another job. The chain kept runnin on with slightly elevated revs. Again revs picked up whilst pullin the saw from the cut. We put new clutch springs in firstly as we thought thar was the prob. However when cold its fine but after a few minutes not workin and gets warm it revs up on its own. So an airleak i think. The crank seals and all gaskets where done on the rebuild except crank case gasket as thats a major job. B4 we get the gas torch out any thoughts?
