So does anyone here have experience with both an 034 and 036, or 036 conversion, that can comment on running differences between the two other than "More Power"?
My oh34 has been dead nuts reliable. Only issue I ever had was a spark plug came loose, to find out it was the wrong plug. That issue has been fixed asapnever noticed excessive vibrations. i'm just glad it started.

I take it the saw was used when you purchased it?....And is it only when cutting that it has excessive vibration?
Either one was available for the 034. He could have either rim or a tooth. Both of the 034's that I converted to an 036 came with a tooth sprocket.I thought those saws came out with a rim sprocket, I think mine has one, probably an option. Mine's gonna be an 036 in about a week..
I'll throw in my two cents here. The vibration you describe here could be a badly worn sprocket or a sprocket that just plain doesn't like the chain. In short, they hate each other. You might want to try a rim sprocket to see if that improves anything.
Is ur saw the 034. Or 034 av super? Guess I'm left hanging on exactly what oh34 has the vibes. If they shake that bad let the wife run it. Shakin saw, satisfied wife lolIt did come with a rim sprocket, the one with the really small splines. I upgraded it to the larger splines, the same as my 044, hoping that would be more stable. I think it did help a little bit, just not as much as I would have liked.
I ran into this no-hole plastic problem with a 311 upgrade to a 391 and with an 034 upgrade to an 036. My "redneck solution" was to drill a hole in the shroud using a Forstner bit, making sure that I could get to the decomp valve for installation and removal. Then I enlarged it with filing to accomplish the mission. That worked for me.Well, it's about a week later and my 034 is almost an 036. I installed the piston and cylinder and noticed the plastic wouldn't fit because of the bigger fins on the cylinder so I trimmed the plastic ribs a bit so it would fit, then realized the cylinder was made for a compression release so I installed one of them. Of course the plastic cover didn't have a hole for the cr so I went ahead and ordered a complete set of 036 plastic including new air filter which it needed. Now I get to wait some more for the plastic plus a muffler and heat shield.
About my luck I'd drill the hole in the wrong place. I'll probably resell the two plastic pieces some day if I don't need them or keep them in my Stihl pile..I ran into this no-hole plastic problem with a 311 upgrade to a 391 and with an 034 upgrade to an 036.
