Hi Jerry, You know, I have seen that monster somewhere before.Oh now I remember! Congratulations Jerry!
Lawrence
P.S. How does that baby run?
I do not have a 10 cube 090 but have a few of the regular models. Two are modified. One has a removable head and pipe. Modified is better than stock. I do have a 10 cube West Bend (Horstman stroker). Mike
And to think, Lawrence and I were trading Pioneer's for Remington's!!! I didn't know that monster was on the block:jawdrop:
Congrats Jerry, glad to see Lawrence knew where a good home for that saw could be found........although.....in future.....lets shuttle ship them thru my place. I would have washed it for ya:greenchainsaw:

Well I fired it up today for the first time since its arrival last week. There was not even a smell of gas in that tank so you must have vaccumed it out. It fired on the third pull with the choke on and I got the choke in before it stalled, it runs superb. Absolutely no issues with this one. I even took the airfilter out and it was absolutely clean, did you clean this saw up before you shipped it to me?

I'll be watching this. If it works well I'm going to throw a couple bucks at my parts friend for a second 090 cylinder to play with. Can't say I've worked with wood big enough to really necessitate a ported 090 though... Mine doesn't even slow down with its 33" bar totally buried. That 60" is another story though!

Jerry,I did a quick wipe down,put a little elbow grease to the helper end(stinger),and thats it.?you know I can't remember if I even took the filter cover off.

Well simple questions sometimes require complex answers. The crank on the oldest 090s were not counterweighted with enough weight to stop vibration. Those first ones were fearsome on white knuckle. Then they put a flat spot on the weight and bolted or glued (some kind of early epoxy I think). The bolted ones seemed the best so I don't worry about high RPM with them. The glued are a concern but I still run them up (12,500 to 13,000).
Now that I wrote all this down I can't be sure if I got some of this mixed up with the 125 Mcs. Well JJ will be along to straighten me out. One thing sure is Ken Dunn and I ran them up to high RPM and they never blew. Mike
Jerry...
I'm going to be watching this thread with tremendous interest. I don't plan on porting either of my 090s but I have already learned a few things from this post.
Thanks to you and the other posters.
