Port my chinky saw or leave it the way it is?

[dieseldod]

Good day to you fellas, was happily browsing your forums half an hour ago and then instantly decided to go rip my 62cc parker saw to bits, its just this minute broke in. As usual theres always something false about chinese gear,it is actually a 58cc saw with 45.2mm piston .. I was goin to run the dremel round the ports and do a gasket delete on it.I also will gut the muffler,it looks to have a cat lookin thing inside chokin it up, so lads im looking on advice from you regarding what needs done to it. The ports look well finished I was quite surprised I expected them to be rough cast. I,m lookin to improve torque if anything , barrel is black with the shallow fins on top,thanks in advance lads

Welcome to the nut house. Post #1 and you're already taking a screw driver to your saw.

A muffler mod will do wonders for performance on its own. Before you do it however, make sure that you have a carb with 2 adjustment screws. Some of the new environmentally friendly (B/S) carbs only have 1 adjustment screw. You wil need to adjust both the high and low screws after the mod.

Thanks for that ,I was just out and checked the squish its got more than enough clearance with the gasket in the bin, my carb has both l n h. I was thinking of making a manifold and fitting a husky carb.

I bought one of those a year ago. I was suspicious that they might have sent me a smaller displacement saw, because there's no markings anywhere to indicate displacement. I actually called the customer service number and got some girl who didn't have a clue what I was talking about. She bsed for about five minutes until I finally felt sorry for her and let her go. I use mine every once in a while, and it seems to be doing ok for a disposable saw.

Yes thanks for that, it seems a reliable slow running saw so far.I wont miss the missing 4ccs lol
