I have cleaned dozens of jugs worse than that one. Its just plain foolish to put an aftermarket jug (meteor or otherwise) in place of that OEM.
My thoughts exactly.I have cleaned dozens of jugs worse than that one. Its just plain foolish to put an aftermarket jug (meteor or otherwise) in place of that OEM.
The magic of the 10 mm 044 is the original cylinder. From the posts I've seen, none of the aftermarket cylinders will match it, and none of the am cylinders are consistent, you get some good ones and some not so good. However, some of the am pistons are very good.
That is why most posters are recommending using the OEM cylinder if at all possible.
Also, as low volt eluded, a HD-2 air filter and dp muff cover will really help to wake these saws up, they just seem to respond to that very well.
Best of luck with your project, I really like those saws.
Hmmm my 440 with an aftermarket jug makes my 10mm 044 look like an 036 for power ,did i get a good one somehow ?
10mm vs. 12mm threads usually turn out like oil threads. I've had both on the bench at the same time and I'd be hard pressed to tell the difference between the two in a log.
Looks like it. Thanks for convincing me to do it. There's only one spot on exhaust side I can't seem to get out. It worries me a little but I'll try it anyways
