262XP Day

[SawTroll]

the IPL doesnt tell the full story.
All KS jugs I've seen on mine they also have a 87 carb, I am almost 100% certain that KS=87.
But then we have your brother 262.
Hope you soon can figure out sn, jug and carb on that one for us Niko

So do I, but his stuff is scattered a bit around - I asked him to look for it though!

We will see....

My brains are scattered.......is that the same thing?

Did a 261 ever run an 87 carb?

No

This thread rocks

I've got seven of the squish bands cut.......gotta stop to print shipping labels.

I'll add more to this tomorrow, we'll talk about timing numbers, and a few tricks that this saw really likes.

 

[SawTroll]

No

True, no doubt - unless someone put it there later.

An issue with a discussion like this is of course what was original vs. what was put together later, but that is one of the combinations that surely wasn't original!

Last pic of the day.....

One of these saws is one I built several years ago.........it shows signs of possible detonation. It has a popup too.

 

[Deets066]

Or maybe I should have said days?

10 of them total. 7 on the bench and 3 being assembled......

It seems as though you don't have enough saws to port, maybe you should try some more advertisement!

 

[Mastermind]

Stop picking on me Deets.

I'll work on your jug as soon as I can.......OK? Good.

WaHahahahahahahahaha

I think you'll like what you see when you get it on the degree wheel.

You don't seem to have a problem with holding onto other peoples jugs while you ream them????????? What are you using on the case gaskets for assembly?

Please, could we have a little bit of comparison with the STIHL 036 cylinders?

I'll show you a reaming........get over here.

That's Loctite 518 on dem gaskets. Good insurance.

You show up with stock 036 specs, and we'll kick it around.

Say it aint so Ethel !!!

Say it aint so Ethel !!!

I used a lot of pop ups when I first started.

I wonder if it caused this detonation issue? It seems that the edge of the popup could possibly divide the flame front and leave unburnt gases at the outer edge that could cause detonation.

It does disrupt the flow. Was this your saw?
