Hello, I enjoy making videos a little bit about everything and as the name goes, I’m always digging into something. I’ve always enjoyed helping people. Enjoy the content and thanks for watching!
I know you have been out of the radio game but do you remember the version number of the cps software used for the PM 400. I have the whole set of cps and want to save some time. thanks
What’s the logic behind running it that rich? Seems like you’re giving up a fair bit of performance. Great video though. Been contemplating the conversion myself. I think I’m sold now.
Good video, the kit is a nice one stop option for this conversion but just so you know you can get the parts from your Stihl dealer by putting the bar from HT pole saws on there. Every schematic usually has two sprockets or more. Out of all of those usually there is one that is a different pitch chain. I highly recommend this kind of conversion not only for these in tree limbing saws but also for your ground guys for their rear handled saws. The chains are cheaper, faster to file, and less exhausting to use because you’re shaving off bar weight. It’s not as dramatic as issuing a light weight 26” bar are a larger CC saw but even on those smaller limbing saws we naturally tend to reach away from ourselves while limbing so it makes a difference. Think of it like holding a 5 gallon bucket full of water near your leg vs reaching out fully extended with that same full bucket. You will definitely feel it. Nice intro song and keeping the content relevant and not click bait. Stay safe and keep climbing!
I have the same engine. Just finally got oil leak fixed, valve cover. I believe my head gasket is leaking a little. Still runs good n mows. But leaks oil exhaust side of engine n smokes sporadically. Kinda black on engine where head gasket is. Is it still safe to mow grass with it. I do take multiple breaks to let it cool some. Thank you. Great videos.
Spray starting fluid around the crank bearings and intake boot to check for air leaks on that 372 clone you're having problems with. Id bet there's an air leak.
Owned mine for about a week ride it every night. Love it. One distinguishing key elements is the handlebar width which is 21 inches. Typically wider than most scooters I see including the segway. This adds more stability for the ride which is fantastic I actually like it's more than the Segway ninebot Max.. I find it more fun, and at 30 lb much easier to carry around I call it two thumbs up for Evita
I got this same clone saw, ran alittle like ass until I tuned on it and now I swear the thing rips like nobody’s biz it’s freaking nuts I’m beyond impressed
I would like to see advance vs retard on the dyno as I've always thought you would advance a saw unless really upping the compression/squish area/decreasing squish height. On removing the muffler tubes, be sure the bolts are tight cause they end up in the cylinder if they back out.
@@kraftzion love the ideas! Yes, everyone is always about advancing the timing, but depending on the build you can loose power. I do think it does favor 2 smoke saws for the most part. The only way to find out is to test and tune!
I would like to see some of your poulans on the dyno. I just ported first two saws, a 4218 strato crafstman.poulan and a 4620 pp non strato. The 4218 was 14 seconds in the cut stock, got it down to 7. The porting was the last thing I did it took me from 9 to 7. From 14 to 9 was a combination of muffler mod, drilling the carb venturi out from 9.5mm to 12mm, opening up the slot between the fan and air box, removing safety rakers and optimizing the chain, unshrouding the air filter and intake, shaving the carb blade screws and shafts, timing advance. If you are starting porting like me these saws are ideal. I way overshot mark on my 4620 went from 143 to 165 on the exhaust. Still dropped from 6 to 5 seconds after porting. It was already muffler modded and optimized without porting. I cant believe it got faster, thought was for sure going to fall on its face. Got a lot more to say but got to go right now. Needless to say very interested in seeing these saws on the dyno and how close you can get one to that 543xp clone. Cool channel!
@@DIGGINGDEEP007 I just dug a 2002 PP295 out of storage and got it running. I was looking at using the Husqvarna SP33G chain (.325, 20”, 78 DL), but I can’t find anywhere that says if a Pferd or Stihl 2 in 1 sharpener will work on that chain. Husqvarna has their own x-cut sharpener and I’ve used Husqvarnas roller system before on some 3/8 chain, but not .325. I’ve been using a Pferd 2 in 1 on my 3/8 chains for my Echo CS-590 and Husqvarna 455 Rancher… I’m hooked on the 2 in 1! I have a bench grinder too, but I can clamp a saw in a vice and have it ready to go with the 2 in 1 in about the time it takes me to take a chain off and throw a new one on. I can get the SP33G chain for just over $14/chain, but idk if the 2 in 1 sharpener works either those…. I’ve read a couple places that the Husqvarna x-cut has a little different profile than standard chain.
Is it possible to for you to share where you got the arduino board and where you got the software? I heard you say some things, but having a hard time Googling where to get the Arduino and software. Thanks in advance
Yes the board right from amazon. The software you can grab up from the Arduino website I believe. I watched other RU-vid to vids to figure this out. Hope the helps. Thanks for watching!
I have the exact same cheap Chinese one I actually bought it like 4 or 5 years ago and I just actually learned how to use it by watching your videos. Thanks for the help
I just got one. Opened the strato port. It sounds and runs very good but haven't cut any wood yet. For 129 dollars it was a ridiculous bargain i couldn't pass up. Fun stuff.
Hey man quick question when you put the centrifugal filter cover on do you need to put a gasket? I pulled mine off and it had a gasket on it that was pretty messed up. But I can't find the gasket online.
Thanks for showing your experiences so candidly. I am a new climber as well, and learn a ton from videos like this. Thanks for putting it out there. Godspeed.
Good video sir. I just finished this on a Kohler CV 730 mine was a little easier. I put the engine on a Murray 40 inch cut. Plus it has dual exhaust. I had a valve job on both heads since I had both off. Not a difficult job. The CV 730 has hydraulic lifters so no need to reset the rocker arms.
This work will get into your blood and you wont wanna do anything else. Looks like youre doing things right and taking it slow. Be careful learn your species and how each reacts when cut.
