I have an Echo CS 400 that I seized yesterday due to what i believe was overheating based on the type of scoring and circumstances. I have been pretty happy with the way the saw runs after the muffler mod and adjusting the mixture so i think id like to know what my options are for fixing it.
Does anyone sell an oversize piston for this saw, say .020 over, so i can just have the existing cylinder bored? Can the cylinder even be bored because of the clam shell design?
If i have to buy both a piston and cylinder new anyway, can a piston/cylinder combo from a larger cc echo fit the existing saw with the existing crank, or would the stroke be wrong? or even just buy the crank as well and still fit it into the saw.
since it will be apart at this time anyways, is there noticeable benefit in port work on these cs 400 saws? digging out the cat in the muffler was already quite noticeable.
