How come never see an ma880

[hseII]

I'm still trying to figure out why someone would have a bar on an 880 that was measured in inches & not feet.

If it's less than 3 1/2', a 90cc will do it better.

That sums it up.

In order for me to start my 880 I drilled out the bleed port in the decomp valve to 1/16" or 5/64".

Actually easier to start than some of my smaller saws.

When you are a skinny geezer you have to find a way around.

Stihls Rescue "D" handle at $5 is your friend........just sayin.

What did you run a 10 pin rim?

What did you run a 10 pin rim?

Sadly it had a 404 tip and 8 pin was all I had.
Just did it for giggles.

I don't wanna change the tip because it fits the 090 also and changing sprockets is a minor pain.
I have to call Datco, or whoever and order some sprockets.
What is that company's mane?

I think you can get 10 pin rims for harvesters in .404, I do not know if they fit the size clutch drums an 880 will have though. 7 spline I want to say.

The first I saw an 880 was at jensen and pilagard with grandpa and I was like cccooooollll can i get one grandpa. I was 17 knew nothing about saws but wanted one.

I suspect that they are roughly the same size or the exact same. It would make sense to use an off the shelf part vs designing one from scratch.

If not I'll bore it out and turn the OD off the right size. Press and Tig in a couple of spots.

That makes more sense. a 10 pin .404 and a 16 or 18 in bar would be highly amusing, I think.

What's a decomp valve

It's what you use when you are 71 and 135#.[emoji6]

Or if your 084 is ported and you don't want to replace the starter. Lol

Actually most all the aftermarket decomp valves you see on evilbay are for the smaller saws with a tiny bleed port. Way too small for 122cc.

And, the return springs in same are all over the place from near stuck to won't stay open.

I got the original decomp on mine.
As with my 111s.......when you pull, pull with CONVICTION!!!!
