Afternoon guys,
I picked this 254 maybe xp up for $50 about 6 weeks ago. Finally got around to checking it out. I first put some mix in the tank and she fired right up. Feels like it has great compression. I have a couple questions.
- Is it an XP? It has the port from the fan to the air cleaner housing.
- Is there much upside to this saw? Should I clean it up, rebuild carb and replace clutch cover and all rubber bits and resell?
What are your thoughts?
I was also thinking maybe keep it and do a gasket delete and some mild porting and muffler mod. How do they respond to that?
Thanks,
Lee
