I recently purchased a n honest stihl 031av for the collection, I did an electronic ignition conversion with one of those SIG-1 chips and she starts and ticks over o.k. I had the opportunity to take a load of my old saws to cut fire wood at my buddies over the weekend and the stihl 031 was one of them as I thought I would tune it in the cut as it appears just a little flat at full revs and not quite crisp in throttle response? it appears to reach approx. 90% performance wise. anyway to cut a long story short it didn't matter what was done to the jets, it was still flat, fuel lines and filter are fine. my question is do these need the timing adjusting to accommodate the electronic chip ? has anyone else experienced any problems like this ? I don't think the exhaust is the problem as its plenty loud enough ? thanks in advance CD ;O)
