i bought this saw for 5.00,,the b/c was worth 3 times that,, it ended up having bad seals so i figured what the heck,, send it to the moon,,, also i did the weedeater,,,, the weedeater was taching right at 14000,, i tried to go get the tach before it blew,,, the pics are the afterwards of the saw,, as you can see i got it started 2 times after it shut down the first time,, it is hard to see it but this thing was smoking pretty bad,,,
everyone always wanted to see a POS saw get blown up,, your wishes are answered :hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange:

Did you straight gas it? I've been thinking of straight gassing a saw that I have and then tearing it down to show the difference of straight gas and bad seals. You can hear yours was a wee bit lean.
 
You need some help...Professional help..!! - LOL

Those are the sounds NO ONE wants to hear..!!

You're issuing...NIGHTMARES - !!!

I was expected a "blown up" saw: explosion, shrapnel, twisted metal carnage. All you did was score the cylinders!
 
you psychotic sequoia !

Next time you try this could you shoot it with a 45 magnum at the base of the cylinder please, and wear your PPE of course.
 
nice vids, i love it! i would love to know what the temps are on those cylinders as they are melting.
