I was thinking the same thing. Is it a new top end ? Maybe he's breaking it in easy ?
My eardrums hurt just watching the vid. LOL
It has a brand new piston, and this was the first time it had been in wood.

I figured as much. Can't wait to see the vid. with those .404 chips piling up around your knees.It has a brand new piston, and this was the first time it had been in wood.
Flipping them over won't help ?I think it may be the reeds. Only one reed seals perfectly tight, two are very close to sealed, and one just flat out needs replaced.

It's good that you found the problem. I hope that you don't scuff that nice paint job while reassembling it.
Looks like it's oiling good. How about opening up that reed cage more that stock and cutting some larger ones from carbon fiber. You can fax boyesen tracings and measurements and they will build you some custom reeds for your application. I was thinking about doing that for my mac 125.
Wow, what a frustrating day! I swapped the reed cage and carb from my 1130G, no dice. I then swapped the ignition, no dice. I noticed that I could back the L screw all the way out and it wouldn't get too rich. If I pulled the choke out part way, throttle response was good, so I knew it was lean. So now I was thinking air leak. All of this on a saw I didn't want to have to turn another screw on after the paint job. I ended up having to pull the right case half off, as it was leaking at that gasket. The flywheel side crank seal was also leaking, between the metal OD of the seal and the case. I put the case back together using sealant on both sides of the gasket, and put green Loctite on the crank seal to case joint. I'll see tomorrow if it'll holds vacuum. What a mess!
I finally got the 1050 running like a top, but it kicked my butt. I spent HOURS on that thing today and had it apart a hundred times. Now to collect a few small parts to put the 1130G back together, lol.
