    Used first time my dolmar ps 5105: some questions

    OK guys, we tuned the saw tonight. For infomation: the saw was drinking a lot of fuel, when gas was empty, the oil for the chain was about 2/3 full. So we tuned it: I used a rpm-meter, and at full throttle the saw runned about 9,800/10,000 rpm (running free). We tuned the L-screw...

    Used first time my dolmar ps 5105: some questions

    Good news it is a 5100 muffler, we don't need that cat :msp_biggrin: My brother is using a stihl MS250. The saw has already 2 years, and he's doing the double at this time. As Brian says, I also think the saw is too rich (to break in). I have turned the S-screw 4 times, if not, is was stopping...

    Used first time my dolmar ps 5105: some questions

    guys, thx for the reactions. @ sawtroll: no, the dealer hasn't used a tag. Can I do it myself? If I understand well, it is advised to install a 5100-muffler, because it hasn't a cat.

    Used first time my dolmar ps 5105: some questions

    Hi guys, Today I used for the first time my new dolmar ps 5105. I have to say the dealer has not much changed on the carb. I have the impression that the saw is not making a lot of RPM's. Maybe to break in? So my questions: Is it normal that the saw is using a lot of fuel? I have to...

    Opinions on a Dolmar Saw

    You can't go wrong with a dolmar. Everybody has his personal preference, so Stihl or Husky are nice saws too. But here in Belgium, Stihl and Husky do a lot of advertising, Dolmar isn't. It are other owners of Dolmars who advertise for them!

    Proud to show my new saw: the dolmar ps5105 little bit modified - question about catt

    Héhé, great reply! Yeah, have to admit: got some inspiration by the new 346xp :rock: I ordered clutch cover+ spikes, so still have a original panted cover. I think it is nice because color of the spikes is about the same as the cover.
