I'm pretty sure this is a 100% stock saw.

The plastic cover over the muffler has the shiny reflector under it and It is clean around the muffler. It gets real hot and some of the plastic is melted back at the edge. Also some sawdust was landing on the muffler, getting hot, and blowing off as little sparks.
is this the norm for a stock 026?

Thanks for any replys,
Bill
 
Is the sawdust/chips blowing off occasionaly (average of 1 every time I'm in a 15" cut) normal?

Thanks,
Bill
