I'd say its a very nice addition to your saw plan. I always loved the 024's. Thanks for posting!That works well for that size saw..........but would kill a larger saw. Too much heat.

I may be having that trouble with my 028 Super. Yes, it has lots of compression and power. Yes, it overheats and wants to quit after about half a tank of running. Let it cool in the shade and on the ground for 10 minutes and it will repeat the same performance like clockwork. Did it today.That works well for that size saw..........but would kill a larger saw.

No other underlying issues?I may be having that trouble with my 028 Super. Yes, it has lots of compression and power. Yes, it overheats and wants to quit after about half a tank of running.

I'm not seeing the sticker that adds HP! You really are keeping it a sleeper huh? Looks like she's breaking in very nicely!! Any idea how it compares to a monkeyed 026?
Randy,
How do ha get the studs out of the top of the jug for machining?
Mel and I were talking tuning yesterday and he mentioned you told him to buy a tach. When you finish porting a saw how do you decide what the saw should be tuned at?
Is it based on timing numbers, or how the saw tunes out after being built?
And is it best in your opinion to rely on the rpm number, or tune by ear WOT with unlimited coil and in the wood if it's limited?
I seen my dad cut firewood for years with his 028 never did I see him adjust the carb. I was the same way till I found this place,now I play with the carb like a teenager with a hole in his pocket!Cool! I find myself constantly playing with the tune on my saws. Probably unnecessary... It's usually just a tiny tweak.
I think I'm trying to make up for all those years of just start it and run it!
Roflmao!I seen my dad cut firewood for years with his 028 never did I see him adjust the carb. I was the same way till I found this place,now I play with the carb like a teenager with a hole in his pocket!
Fixed it. Turned out the oiler was getting clogged up with goop in the bar oil tank. I flushed it out and made sure the bar was oiling OK. The heat build up from a dry bar was getting to the saw's engine and shutting it down. You have to wonder if there isn't a sensor somewhere. Regardless, this 028 Super now cuts very well and never overheats, even in a long noodle cut. Another keeper for sure.No other underlying issues?
