Yes. Motoseal works great for stuff like that. I've used it for MAC fuel tank gaskets made from a strip of cork gasket material to seal the ends. No leaks at all.

Does anyone know what the best muffler mod would be for my PP310?
Cut some more wood and hauled it home, got about this much more to do tomorrow. 
The 365 did give some trouble later in the day, it went lean and died in a felling cut. Started back up, gave the high side a little turn and it seemed better, then later started leaning out again off and on.
Dug into it and found this little tear/hole in the impulse line that was just replaced not all that long ago. It was right out of the nipple on the case and near the edge of the intake boot.
Not sure whats going on with that, I'm thinking that maybe I gouged it with the hemostats when I was putting in last time? Only thing that makes sense I guess. **** happens.

That's a nice haul on the fire wood, that will keep ya busy for a few hours. 
Nice find on the impulse line. That would not have been visible by any means with out pulling the line out.
Believe it or not, I did see it, blew it all out and got the light in there and seen what I thought was a tear/hole so then I tore it out of there.
I did not see it before I had the carb out and tore down though. LOL
Thats OK , at least I know its all good to go again.

What does the different types for the 3450 differentiate?
3450 t2 54cc - 3450 t3 60cc
Newest NOS to come in. Updated worm gear for the 475 415 to make them little more like the 425 445 505. 
NOS oilers, drums, worm gears, pto crankcase seals. Just 1 set shown to compare to the 505 stuff.

Then how is the type 2 different from type 1? The type 2&4 share the same cylinder model number where the type 1 has its own cylinder model number?
Kensie,I don't know what the best is but I have two saws that have about 10% of cylinder volumn for an outlet area.My 044 has 4.31 cu.in. and has a .441sq.in.side hole outlet with a forward pointing hood. My PP260 has about 2.6 cu.in.displacement and has a .26sq.in rear outlet with a hood. If you removed your muffler and posted a picture it would help.
Oh your other question. Impulse location on 1 differs from 2 4 even though all 3 54cc.

2 different mufflers too. Front exit and side exit.
the storm is here on the east coast, hope it moves through fast, i cut today with the 8500, by myself which i do not like to do since the logs are bigger then me, had to split on site and cut stump down to ground. Noodled it as well just because.
No pictures because taptalk is not working for me still.

Kevin, there is a Poulan 3100 muffler on the bay that has the single louver side outlet and a center baffle plate. I think the PP310 uses the same muffler.
He was talking to me about 3450 saws. My answer was for 3450 mufflers.

Had somewhat similar situation on the 3000 I'm putting together. Would start then die. Switched carbs, same deal. Finally replaced impulse line( first one was a bit over sized). Used some smaller sized Tygon and problem fixed. Plan to get similar sized echo black line as a permanent fix.
