    MS361 blew up again

    I put it back together with the stock jug and piston from the other saw. I made a half hearted attempt at a leak down test. The only soap bubbles I made were around the muffler (not sealed very well) and the decompression valve. I started the saw and it sounded pretty good. I think my air...

    MS361 blew up again

    Laugh at a guy when he blows up his saw? Anyway....no. It didn't blow up because of the leak. It obviously ate a wristpin clip. Everything was well lubed with no sign of overheating.

    MS361 blew up again

    I had to fatten the low speed screw up a lot. It would hesitate as if lean. It's an air leak for sure and it has gotten worse.

    MS361 blew up again

    Never even got to really run it. I bought it blown up. Unstuck the rings and did a couple jobs. Stuck the rings again. Bought a big bore P/C and ported it. Ran it a few more times. Always was worried about an air leak but wasn't sure. Killed it again. I was sure I had scratched up my new...

    MS361 blew up again

    Rainy days here. My "box "O" 361 is cleaner (maybe newer) then my saw. If it didn't need a crank and rod, I'd retire mine. I would need to order bearings and seals either way so I'll bring mine in tomorrow.

    MS361 blew up again

    I haven't checked it out yet. It's still in the cab of my truck because I'm too depressed to even look at it right now. I was working on a couple of wild cherries this morning. I was using it on some oak last week and noticed that the rpm would hang for a second or two after a cut. I didn't get...

    Plastic Dump Bodies?

    I have an old Super Duty with a rusted out 10' body I was planning on replacing when funds allow. It was a plow truck with a sander so.... A guy I run equipment for has an F-350 with an 8' body and he asked me where to get a new dump bead for it. I told him about the rubbermade bodies that I...

    Plastic Dump Bodies?

    There was a company selling composite dump bodies on EBay but I can't find them now. Does anyone have one in use and where did you get it? The company I found was selling them out of Virginia. I think they are HDPE lined steel frames and are lighter (and supposedly stronger) then all steel.

    Pioneer 650 build

    It didn't run very long. The rings grabbed the exhaust port and that was the end. :msp_sad: I shouldn't have connected the holes like I did. I wound up selling it for parts along with my Homelite 360...which I also killed! :msp_crying:

    Scammer in the trading post.

    I just got a fake cashiers check for $1500 for a saw I was asking $125 for. I wanted to see how far it would go but I don't know what to do now. I showed the cops but they don't care. I reported it on a scam alert website. What should I say to string it out a little longer. Maybe I should tell...

    Yeah. I have no illusions about having the money or time to fix it. My shoulder is still healing and I'm not even allowed to ride my bike for another 5 weeks. Let alone go back to work.:mad: Oh well. It's all cleaned up so whoever gets it won't even get dirty.
