He's sending me the jug to clean up, and I'll send him back a new piston, and the updated control module. It will be a good chance to test the new module in a real work environment.
They are taking over here......

Awesome!!
It was wierd, I'd sold it to my friend with the intention of buying another, I wasn't using it that often and he needed one.
He was running 40-1 ultra, experienced arborist, knows how to use a saw blah blah, I was with him the day it happened, it was running fine and cutting brilliantly as always. He was cutting rings in a blue gum, shut it off and it wouldn't restart, I tried and the compression felt low so put it away till later. We carried on with an 088xb and 288xp for big stuff and 261xb/261cxb for limbing, all other saws ran fine with no issues so not fuel, weather was warm but not hot.
When I stripped it I noticed the exhaust and cylinder were very sooty, black underneath with tan brown and a light grey tinge on top, piston and rings were toast, cylinder walls had heavy transfer on exhaust and inlet, exhaust having the worst. Failed a vac/pressure test with bubbles coming from decomp valve, valve itself had signs of carbon blowby on the outside like spots of paint overspray. Wiggled the decomp a bit and it sealed up, no other leaks with pressure or vacuum.
I've seen black dirty soot in saws at work using ultra at more than 50-1, I'm going back to mobil1 2t in future.
I'm thinking carboned up leaking decomp caused a lean seize, can't think of anything else
Awesome saw, looks like its mine again so that's a win anyway

It was not as good as I had hoped it would be Numa. I've seen a lot of really good bands, and his performance rated about a 6 - 7 on the Randy scale. lol
I've heard (herd) you have fairly high standards.......
