    272xp rebuild

    Not familiar with orange saws, when I tore it down it didn’t have one of these plastic pieces. Does this go like this? I don’t have the rim on it I was just test fitting

    Any 272 wizards?

    Thanks man. I’ll give em a shot. Was it more torquey or rpm monster?

    Any 272 wizards?

    Yes was looking for timing numbers but prob just gonna base delete and raise roof of intake and exhaust the thickness of base gasket and widen them. Prob give her a couple degrees of ignition timing. Don’t need anything wild, just a firewood saw.

    Anybody got a recipe they want to share on how to make power on a 272? Also who makes a velocity stack for them?

    probably going to do a base delete and raise exhaust and intake back to factory specs. Maybe a couple degrees of timing. Might do velocity stack and cone filter thru the top cover.

    I’m guessing just seized from sitting, unstuck it, put my thumb over hole to see if she was blowing and it felt healthy swapped coil and put it back together didn’t even clean the carb and fired right up. I’m guessing it was sitting due to bad coil. It looked rough when I picked it up thought...

    Yes I’ve came across that also, but this one has the rings frozen. Poured atf down plug hole and let it sit for a little. Slowly turned clutch back and forth to break loose. Compression is good.

    Picked up a locked up $20 272xp this morning. Free’d the rings, swapped the coil and now I have a nice running 272. First 272 I’ve had. Should be a nice match for the ol 440. They are very comparable but seems the 272 is a top end screamer and the 440 has the grunt. Super stoked about this deal.

    Hey fellas. Ms440.

    Been awhile since I been on here but just because I haven’t been messing with saws. Decided to spend a lil time with the 440.
