I just hope all it is, is the ignition.. Cause I was still getting a spark, just no "pop", even when I primed it...
But the oiler works great, and chain is sharp..

 

[Mo. Jim]

Want me come help you jim?

Naw I'm good, I cut one load today, most of it needs split, going to unload it and go get a load of smaller stuff. There are at least six more loads where I'm cutting now, just need to keep ole Jim working at it.

Yup. Green and yellow Remington's run like a deer and are worth a lot more.

Thought seriously about turning my Partner P100 Super into a Jonsereds 1020.

Sent from my SM-N910V

Sounds like what I did..
Cept I dimpled with a file end maybe 1/4" apart..
That really is a dumb design... Not thought out well at all..
Or.. It worked really well when it was new...

Yup. When they are right it engage in 1/4 turn of the pulley.

All time champs for engagement is the C type Homelite over running clutch starters.

Green paint is good but when the air cleaner cover has "Powerline" in raised letters, ....

'PowerLite'

I have plain top af covers. Not positive but the raised letter tops may be Canada market saws.

Hey Matt, try a little mix in the spark plug hole. If you're getting spark, shouldn't be anything wrong on that end. I suspect maybe something wrong with the reed valve. Just guessing.

ModifiedMark had a 1020 at the Iowa GTG, a member from down under sent it to him. It was missing the recoil, but a little red paint and a P100 recoil fixed that.

Oh boy!!!
I'll check that..
Reed valves... Eeeewwwww....

 

[cobey]

reed valves sound cool and pull hard..... i like both kinds
i like the sound of reed valves in the morning

 

[cobey]

or lots of rpm's from a piston port saw

 

[Hedgerow]

No love on the squirt of mix into the spark plug hole...
But on a good note, the recoil is bound up now...
Or the motor is locked up...

I did an AWOL muffler mod to the little 024 ............
just took the muffler cover off...... kinda same ear splitting sonic results
but drilled some holes and put it back on
got all the toilet stuff fixed and cleaned up , did a muff mod on a 3700 poulan for a buddy
tied up a few more things on the workshop lombard.. it pulls hard and smooth now (fixed the clutch, tightened screws,
put the 20" echo bar on it)

 

[workshop]

On another note, grandaughters are spending the night tonight. Always a fun time. Except the oldest commandeered my TV table and I had planned on rebuilding a McCulloch carburetor on it.
Oh well, there's always the floor.

That Lombard just needed your finesse.

Now advance the timing about 7 degrees... Yee haw...

 

[Hedgerow]

Hmmmm.

Bet it's the recoil...
Or....
It really did suck the reed valve...
Hahahahahaha!!!!!!!

Matt did you try a different plug, I have seen plugs show fire when grounded to the engine and not hit a lick under pressure. You can't long arm those small recoils, short quick strokes are the way to go.

ye I got porting skills... I really need to use them on saws..... this one might be the one
i got a 2800 poulan that would be a good one too........................
I dont have too much in my PL4 if you want to make it a deer

I will try that...
Though I've never had a plug fail at full throttle...
