I couldn't tell much by looking through the exhaust port, it was too small to see the side of the cylinder. I did notice that the parts saw 5100s had a bulge cast into the cylinder right above the flywheel which my saw didn't have so I guess the cylinders are a bit different. I cut a little bit of wood with my saw this morning and decided not to do anything with it. It runs so well that I don't think it needs any improvements plus the saw I borrowed had a ruined piston so the cylinder could be bad also, mine looks like new..

Not sure if this was answered or not.

The open port cylinders have this mark on the cylinder. The PS-6400 which is open port is the same way vs. the 7300/7310 & 7900/7910.

Looking for some assistance on a Dolmar 120 Super.

For some reason when dolmar created the 120 super and added the primer setup, they drilled a hole in the tank right next to the air valve/existing fuel line outlet. Unfortunately they relied on friction of the fuel line to seal the hole, so when the fuel line shrank it leaks! I put new fuel line in but it is not as tight of seal as i would like. There is not enough room for a grommet and fuel line to go through the hole.

I am sure that I am not the first to run across this problem. So what has been done to fix this problem?
 
On some macs they wrap teflon tape to build up then pull into place.

Thanks for the information.

I may try to do that. I figure if it doesn't work I may just plug the hole, as I don't really need the primer with a choke. I think my primer bulb is in bad shape anyway and I believe the primers are NLA. Mine has a choke, which I believe the later 6800 did not, so the primer was a must.

Also, another weak point I noticed on these late saws were the antivibes. They used the same fine machine thread from the days of the magnesium tanks, but that fine thread did not secure them well in the plastic tank. I was able to fix it with some threaded inserts, but Dolmar could have avoided this by using a much coarser thread like Husky antivibes.
 
Looking at picking a 114 which may have scored P&C. Is it worth a new top end? Where would one shop for a good deal on that kit? Possible to move up to the next larger size?
Thanks guys
114 is the bigger brother to the 112. good little saw but slower and overweight by today standards of pro 50cc saw. Rebuild worth it? depends on the saw and if you're getting a good enough deal. Pistons and cylinders should be on Ebay pretty readily.

Not sure how much room you have but, a drill motor and twist drill is your best friend. Shop in the table lamp parts isle at Ace Hardware for rubber grommets.

Got it for $25 CDN but it is pretty rough. P&C toast rest of the saw filthy and the bar was the worst condition I've ever seen but I'd driven a long way to get it so I though might as well could probably sell the chain brake for 25.00. Can you fit a larger P&C of this saw?
