not sure but my runs the same with either mix only thing i noticed is the slight increase in smoke when it starts.
does it bobble off long idles ?not sure but my runs the same with either mix only thing i noticed is the slight increase in smoke when it starts.
Doesnt it strictly hunt out rpm?
no its does bobble off long idles it has excellent throttle response. it never has bogged on me but the saw is a little cold blooded.does it bobble off long idles ?
what does the solenoid in the elec carb do? wondering.
a. when it's "on" restricts fuel flow
b. when "on" allows more fuel to flow
c. none of above
d. thicken molecules
it opens and closes for every revolution of the engine. the longer it's open, the more fuel it gets
10-4.
was thinking it was a fuel- injector- like solenoid deal.
must use trigger pulse off the fly-wheel magnet.
Well it is a Stihl...Looks like it's a girl. Congrats, Brian!
I really dont know ,it was pretty thick carbon milling with h1r but had some grey deposits like ash,the mobil does not seem to leave the ash ,i have only used 6 pints of the mobil so far between 2 saws and the yard trimmers,if i was too rich on the milling saw i would think it would be washed clean ? Not built up so much,on the intake side the piston is washed in the one secton shaped like a triangle, the exhaust port was pretty clean ,it also has a stock muffler can with full baffle and a dual port cover ,that may ne why the carnon is cracking from heat build up ?
In some of the pics the crown looks good, others not so much. In the oil test preformed on a small RC aviation engine, the results looked much the same with Mobil 1. However in normal use M1 seems to burn extremely clean. My thoughts are.
1. Like you said the engine is breathing enough because of the restrictive muffler.
2. Two the engine isn't getting hot enough to keep the piston crown clean, because the tuning is a tad rich.
3. The fuel mix is simply not preforming well in this extreme application.
I would try a different mix with the same tuning. I don't see anything that really indicates the engine was running hot, M1 may just solidify in that application.
how many hours you think you got on that 660 milling brian? IIRC that saw has a raisman platt crank in it? i've had good luck with the hutzl cranks as well. used 4-5 of them now and all saws are still running being neglected like normal.
