His shipper is telling him they delivered it. His customer says not. If he agrees with the customer it'll be a big PITA for him. I kinda think it's between you and Fed-Ex now.
 
So are they using that "flange" inside to set port height and timing?

If you guys are talking about the little raised dimple on the exhaust, I'm assuming it's sort of liike an old school compression release. They used to do it in saws 20 years ago or so. It's supposed to aid in starting.
 
The following is my personal correspondence with the seller all I asked him to do was open a claim with Fedex, which must be done from the sellers end. He basicly told me to pound sand. Please help me by giving him bad reviews or stop purchses all together.

Fed Ex has a problem with gates, I have had them throw stuff over my 7' high gates and ignore the delivery box and sign altogether, I also had them deliver $750 worth of street sweeper parts on a rush job to my neighbor and deliver his Cabellas order to my box. Personally I would check which one of your neighbors has the new saw on their porch.
 
- so large airbox openings are probably needed. I do plan to modify the a filter cover though.

When I was looking at mine, I noticed, after I took the starter housing off, that there appears to be ducting between the cover and that black plastic piece under the cover - molded into the plastic. It APPEARS to me (the uneducated) that there is some sort of forced air system from the flywheel fan into the air box.

Take a look at yours and see what you think.

Yep, Walt I think Fedex may be the worse for that stuff of any I've heard of.
 
LOL; I snapped a socket with my air impact wrench today taking off the flywheel nut off of one of the Earthquake; I had to run up to the next town to get it new one (3 hours it took) :angry:

I had all four Earthquakes saws running this morning that I got this week :jester:

And one of them is in pieces on the bench as I type; It's just to cold out in the barn to work out there :jester:
 
yup, that's the one

I get a kick out of all the other Earthquakes that are now posted for $169, sheesh...and that ain't modded!!

$74 bucks shipped for a parts ms170 or something...fine. $74 bucks for a parts earthquake...when they were soo cheap earlier...cmon.

Like I said back on page 5,478...stop buying them, force that price down...

I am sure this thread is on google for earthquake now...yep this thread is the third hit n google under discussions...which I search before I buy anything...

Cmon guys....
 
I was up in a Sears and Sawbuck today killing time waiting for a tool at another shop

And I looked at there saws they had a black 45 cc saw there but it didn't have any name logos on it at all just had a 45 cc sticker and it was black basically looked like the 38 cc saw
