Whelp I ran the old Pioneer with a new chain on my mini mill today, she cuts real nice, the slow torque actually pulls the saw thru the wood uphill!! no pushing!!

She sounds pretty good for a 45 year old saw, I can tell she`s a little low on comp but still running quite strong. Did you check your compression ? Sounds around 125 in the video, thanks for posting it.
