Use primarily for Alaskan Sawmilling with 60" bar. Low hours but I assume the hours I did put on are hard with extended running. only use Stihl oil. Well, the connecting rod froze to crank and piston shot. Got it all apart and before I order parts, thought I'd ask a question or 2. I'm not interested in porting it and making more power but I would like to know what I can do to help it run cooler if anything? Are there good aftermarket parts alternatives? What would some of you more experienced folks do with this saw when you have it torn down this far and want not so much more power but to help it last longer slabbing 45" logs. Thanks!
