Between kindergarten graduation and other projects I'm not gonna have time to sneak to my dealer and pressure test the 61. Will anyone be able to help me out with this possibly Saturday?

Bringer along... Man, last project darn near made my ears bleed!

My 61/272 has either a fuel issue or crank seals need replaced. But damn it was screaming before it went stupid. It idles fine but bogs under load. I'm hoping it's a simple fix. The only things that aren't new are the bottom end. Every thing else has been replaced.

Ignition issues? Coil going on the fritz?

Hoskey hill has plenty of bolts and metal something or others to cash a chain with!!:angry:

I have about 10 bridge spikes I could bring,I found the first one with a brand new 24" chain. I was blocking up a big black locust log that had a deer stand at one time. Steps were long gone,but the spikes were still there.

I'm looking forward to running Sarahs 2153!!! I am also bringing my Dads old Husqvarna L77. I just rebuilt the carb but I am thinking it may have a crank seal or some sort of air leak. I did a half a$$ restore crappy paint job on it and I sure would like to run it some.
