Nice 440 six pack.

OK time for some port work! My stock 385 runs good but its nothing like that 390.

A stock 385 is better ported than a stock 390. You can gain a lot by opening the 385 up at both ends (larger carb and muffler mod).

It looks like somethinsk I thought was in the bushes looking in at me when I was small....

 

[Wood Doctor]

how much? 10 deg each way?

Exactly-- I believe that's the angle that the first notch provides. Then I increased the sharpening angle from 30 to 32 degrees. Philbert's post recommended that. The instructions that came with the grinder say nothing about any of this. Regardless, this seems to be the closest thing I've seen to a file sharpening. It does make a difference (even on Stihl's).

Are those bushes still in the same place ?

Yup right by the driveway where you used to work on your car.....why do you ask?

So what would you suggest for a carb?

Yep.. It was..

Thanks again. The saw I had in my basement should be to your place tomorrow my friend.

Congrats on that. Time to update your sig.

Thought i smelt pipe tobacco smoldering somewhere when i was younger ,what a small world this is .

372 carb

I'm not the expert, but the RWJ-4 off the 372XT surely would help (19mm+ venturi vs. 17.5).

I do not find the stock carb to be an issue at all, although the 372 XTorq carb does make a nice upgrade. It's replacement is not required for a very strong running saw.

Brad I wish I could take you out to the woods to show you how a work saw cuts.

Does the XT carb help at all on the 390 in your experience?. I'm reluctant to try it since the 390 runs darn good with the stock carb.
