PS5100S Stock Compression Going Wild

[spacemule]

I don't understand the obsession with compression numbers on this site. It's like a fat person buying a scale to tell them they're a fat ass.

That's cause you're not pullin' hard enough Mule.

Yeah, but she won't admit to it.

you can tell the difference running wise with a saw that has 130 vs 160 in my opinion.

It's a good diagnostic tool. If a person has a non-running saw, if they can test the compression it narrows down the range of problems.

7 months to go...........

yeah...screw that

5 years to go for that..............

If you can tell by running, why do you need a gauge to tell you? You're making my point for me.

Diagnostic my ass. If you can't tell if a saw has sufficient compression with a couple starter pulls, you don't need to be troubleshooting anything in the first place.

i just like to know i guess.

160!!! Now that sounds crazy wild for a stock saw.

Well, if it is indeed 160lbs., it looks like I'll stick to the original plan my brain wrote down on the first post minus the compression and just widen the intake and take the exhaust to the max and keep the stock numbers.

DANG! The AS SALOON is out of CONTROL:greenchainsaw:
