Too much compression

A very thin coating of oil on the cylinder wall a piston becomes very stiff and viscous when cold making the cylinder wall and piston seem to be glued together. With a warm saw the oil become much less viscous and the saw pulls easier.

Also the dimensions of the cylinder and piston change as temperature changes. This might make a tighter fit at cold temperatures. It depends on the expansion rates of the materials.

But I forgot that the laws of physics have been made void. :)

The laws of physics are never broken.

Phenomena is just our lack of understanding of the laws of physics. Learned that in R&D 30 years ago.
My mentor could always prove WHY something happened.
That square wheeled bike is obeying the laws of physics.
Google a Geneva gear drive or drilling square holes.
 
Might as well wake this one up.
Two wildthings, both have perfect looking p/c without pulling it apart.
The lower compression one looks like It has less hrs on her.
The one with 170+ is a prick to start per say. It is too light for that amount of compression.
Starts easy tho and runs like a deer in heat.
