Farmertec is Huztl.

Makes sense, thanks!

What a crazy, busy, and productive evening. I left work and headed south an hour to buy a 340. Upon disassembly and inspection, it's had no more than 1 or 2 tanks of fuel through it. It's literally like new. I got home about 6:30. I proceeded to disassemble and clean the 340, what little it needed, and got it ready for the 346 topend. I then machined, degreed, and ported a new OEM NE 346 topend for it, using my 346 to set it up. All I need now is the riser block and it'll be ready to go together. I may just make this deadline yet!

Matt, how much do you open up the muffler on your builds? Do you mind sharing a picture?

Thanks to Mike, I got the bearing cup/cylinder base today and got the saw together. I've not yet priced the shipping to get it there in time though. This saw was parts in a box when I got home from work today.

 

[Mattyo]

how do you like it?

saw looks minty fresh for sure

It seems as strong as a 346XP by feel. Of course you'd have to run both in the same wood to know that, which I wasn't able to do yet.

It'll be headed to CT tomorrow via USPS Priority Mail. I hope it makes it in time. All other options were WAY too expensive.

Runs good Brad! Did you spin a popup for that saw?

 

[cedarshark]

Great looking little "sleeper saw".

Yes I did. Here's the funny thing. I had forgotten to make an impulse passage in the bearing cap/cylinder base. I have no idea how it was even running. I had it back apart after this. It's now on its way north.

 

[Mattyo]

I've made that mistake too... somehow they still run, I don't get it.

There's quite a few ways to fix it, I like making a channel in the bearing cap.

my hyway cylinder, just for reference to the impulse hole

How does it run if the carb cant pump fuel ? Did you shave enough off the bearing cap to wipe out the impulse passage ?

What impulse passage?

I didn't deck the block, only the base of the cylinder. I have no idea how it ran, and it ran well!

 

[Tor R]

Did you go for 357 carb and filter system Brad?
And, if I got it correct 340 oil pump is not adjustable, dont know if you checked that part out...
