Muffler Question, 026

[12guns]

Well, It's Not New, But Thanks To You Guys, I Got A Good One. I Ended Up W/ A Used 026. Brad Corrad Sold Me The Saw And Is Recomended By Me For Anyone Else Looking At Used Saws. What He Says Is What You Get. I Opened The Muffler A Bit And Boy Does It Scream! Thanks For All The Posts In The Past, Lots Of Good Info There. Also, Can I Leave The Spark Screen Off? Can The Saw Run Too Fast For It's Own Good? My Dad's 290 Is In For A Big Suprise!

The Spark Screen Off? Can The Saw Run Too Fast For It's Own Good?

You are not suppose to remove the screen, but most do here as there is no one to check this anyhow!

It should not run more than 14,000 maximum with B&C without load.
