    sprocket size in relation to bar size

    Wondering if you run a 16" bar with a 8 pin rim could you put a 7 pin rim on it with a 18" or 20" bar and have about the same power. Just how much power difference is there when you go up or down a tooth % wise.

    what exactly is saw doing when it 4 strokes

    Ok I think i get it now, when you richen it up to start 4 stroking it's dumping more fuel than the saw can burn an full throttle, because it doesn't actually fire on every cycle cause the piston is turning to fast, but when u put it in a piece of wood and reduce rpm a little it can keep up...
