Gregg, do you remember the 2500 I took to Seans IL GTG to run in the Wildthing races?
It did pretty good although no one did real well compared to Ed.
It got a pretty hefty muffler mod.

Mark, I won't be worrying about thick bar oil. I just don't cut in this cold, if I can help it anyway.
Good to know though. I do like the looks of that 2600. Nice looking saws. Just not my cup of tea I guess. I do want to run my rebuilt 5200 more this year. Doesn't have much run time on it yet. Guess I'll just swap the Poulan branded bar for a lesser looking bar, and give it some exercise. Wasn't going to use it as a "work saw", but I hate just seeing it sitting there waiting for a GTG...LOL

LOL, Yes I sure do remember that GTG. I was feeling kinda proud of my Wildthing, never having tried something like that before. After Ed ran his...we all just put ours back in the truck...

What are the "clamshell" saws you are all talking about? What makes it a clamshell saw?
Like a wild thing, 260 220 2150 4218 4620 295 etc. Plastic crankcase with clamshell type motor.

We're pulling but it ain't moving. Besides, I heard Nik took it down with him and he's pulling back.

I recognize Nik. Is Mark in the gray tee shirt and matching beard? LolAfter seeing this mob of misfits, and all their green saws, you might rethink that..LOL
Gregg,
That's Mike. Mark's to the right in the overalls with the blue T-shirt.
I have managed to find myself in the process of swapping out all remaining diaphragms in the oilers on the 3400-4000 series with the new nitrile. I have noticed that there is a range of resistances when operating the different manual levers The more resistance the bigger the volume of oil output. My 4000 gushed until I swapped out the old diaphragm.
I will tackle the quad rings next. Is there a preferred method of popping off the red housing caps? They are on there with conviction.
I generally use heavier oil (old habit, but the one with new nitrile last summer did fine) and the shop is cooler. In the summer I keep the oil in black jugs and full sun.
