I mis-spoke on the model number. Got so many saws I cant keep them straight. It is a 651sp, pretty clean, seems to run OK

Open port "semi pro" the 028 of the Solo series of that era. Good stuff , gotta love the yellow.

Here is mine, I don't know much about them but this thing RUNS GOOD!

Yep, looks to have 6 open transfer ports similar to the Dolmar 6400. Only these ports are spaced about 1/4" apart

Very similar because they were both designed with Solo influence. Cheap way to cut down power ratings.

Good morning fellows.

Morning Folks!

Jeep the only thing about the holes you drilled is I would be concerned about the dust they will allow to build up under the flywheel/points. I would check for dust volume after 3-4 tanks to see it will be a problem.

Hi all!

That has been my concern aswell, I'm wondering about rubber plugs? If they might fly out or not, one way to find out right? Then again it might keep it cleaner back there, yeah right!

 

[workshop]

I've pulled flywheels off several XL12's that had dust packed in so much you could hardly make out the ignition assembly. While the points are in a covered part of the assembly, one weak concern is the condenser and wiring coming from the points to the coil. Dust/oil accumulation can, and does, cause a short. Thus no spark. While it is a good idea to fit rubber plugs, in the overall scheme of things I don't think it will affect it that much.

 

[workshop]

Another thought, could the holes in the flywheel cause enough air turbulence to help keep the dust accumulation down?
Just a thought.

Yeah, air is going to suck into the holes from behind the flywheel into the center .

Another note on the holes. It will make easier access behind the flywheel with a blow gun.

Drill the holes at an angle so it'll whistle like a turbo[emoji6]

If it would run like a Husky, I might!

I am having Charity Cut withdrawals. Anything locally around the corner? Iowa is a long way to get my fix.
