Ms880 mods

[scheffa]

Gday all, got myself a ms880 that I’m ready to get pulling a bit stronger.
It’s the newer model with the pressed muffler and they don’t run as good as the older versions.
Had the saw since new and probably put 60odd litres of fuel through it so it’s well run in.

not many chainsaw porters over here in aus and getting stuff done with the COVID thing is impossible.

what are people doing to the 880’s to gain a bit more from them??

saw gets used for milling aswell and as firewood duties, running anything up to 84” inch bar.

I agree, Sean Griggs is the man for that stuff over here. You should see some of the work he has been doing. Awesome images on his Instagram account. Look for "BuiltbySean"

Is the saw bog stock at the moment?... Limiter caps, muffler spark screen in place?
Are you retuning when changing form say a 32" bar to the 84" bar?

Im working on a ms880 myself, looks like they're a pig compared to the earlier 1124 series. Choked up muffler, limited carb and caps on some models
