Hybrid Build

[Definitive Dave]

Jonsered 2153.

damn it, I typed Jonser and then changed my guess before I finished

Jred was the comp test mule.

They run better because of the port timing, not so much the shape of the CC.


I agree whole heartedly.


That's a great running saw.


Go to the 3:35 mark in the video above. That's with an 8-pin rim, pulling full comp chain on a buried 28" bar, in frozen hardwood, with a pretty heavy load.

I get the feeling that there's a perception that a saw that makes RPMs doesn't have torque. That doesn't have to be case. Forget the RPMs this saw tunes to and simply observe the power in the cut. It takes a lot of torque to maintain RPMs in the cut with a load like that. Don't over do it with the compression, get the port timing right, and your hybrid will be one of the most impressive saws you've ever ran.

Love the hybrid video. I'm getting all worked up thinking about this and stuff

044 oilers are stingy. I would never attempt to run anything over a 28" with a stock oiler for an extended period of time. Maybe a few cuts......but that's it.
Ive owned 5-6 044/440's. All of them the same.....stingy mofo's
Just sayin....

Is there any potential fix, mod for the oilers to make them "liberal" (as much as I hate the word) with oil

You'll have to mod the original control bolt and/or piston. There are no HO parts for them.

Yup

Has anyone made a thread on how to modify the oil pump?

Yeah, I'll see if I can find it

 

[PA Dan]

Awesome thanks buddy!

Awesome thanks buddy!

How the hell do I find threads I have marked as "watched"

I know there was a thread recently, with pics, but I'll be danged if my search can't find it!

The search engine needs improvement, unless the thread got deleted???

Run .063 guage chain and they oil fine,rum .404 and they oil even better ,i have no mods to my oilers and the chain is always wet

 

[MustangMike]

My 28" bar on the 044 is .063, but I got a deal on a 36" light bar that is .050, so I'll use that on the 460/046 saws.

How the hell do I quote other threads or posts from other threads?



Is there an "AS FOR DUMMIES" section here somewhere? lol

28 and longer is a good idea to run .063, i have an es 36 inch .050 that came on my 660,it ran hotter than the .063.

 

[huskihl]

I understand this

Run .063 guage chain and they oil fine,rum .404 and they oil even better ,i have no mods to my oilers and the chain is always wet

to be accepted, but with 10,000 rpm x 7 drivers = oooohhh let's say about 70,000 drivers per minute. Seems like an awful lot of links grabbing a miniscule amount of oil to be thinking about an extra .013".
