Help please!!!!

That saw is really just a large 10 series design.Because of the port design it really doesn't act like a normal saw nor would the modifications be the same.

You might take the screen out of the muffler and enlarge the outlet a tad.The screen is large and most likely would not cause much back pressure so leave it installed .

This series ,SP 80 ,SP 81 ,SP 800 and 850 are powerful saws but not in my opinion large enough to mill with.I know people try it but in my opinion it's almost a waste of time to even attempt milling with anything less than 100 cc s.

That saw is a most excellent faller/bucker .I have an SP-81 that I use on a regular bassis for these purposes.What little bit of milling I have done has been with a Mac 125 or Homelite 2100 and it even makes these big old saw grunt.

In that case do you know where I can get a 100+cc saw real cheap.
Thanks

I did a compresion test and I got 150 psi but it took three pulls to get there. I got between 90 and 110 on the first pull. Does that sound like a good reading or should I get 150 on the first pull.

Thank for all your help
Chris

PS thanks for all the compliments

Nice WW!
Even though 150 psi is very good, did you fully warm the saw up before doing the comp test?
