Pioneer chainsaws

[MGoBlue]

Posting this vid in the hopes that someone who has experience with the 600's could critique the tune on this saw or at least how it sounds to you. I'm a little hesitant to run it more because of the way it feels. I'm definitely inexperienced with this oldie. I've only cut about 3 times with it after it sat for 50 years! The H is set as the shroud recommended.
Just fyi, I do not have the correct shroud. I have the 4 small bumper, not the large 2 so the cover rattles a bit and I try to hold it still. I did oil the **** out of the chain before starting the cut.

Didn't sound to bad to me. Still 4 stroking when you let off the
pressure and cleans up with a load. If it were me i would try leaning
it out just a hair and see if it will still 4 stroke in a light cut.

Yes, give us a vid where you load/unload the saw two or three times.[emoji6]

And I agree, I did just that (a tiny bit) after I put it away. I need to resolve the rattling cover issue so I can give proper attention to the oiler while cutting.

OK! I'm confused, I picked up a 3270sc today and it has a choke instead of a primer? Did the super have a primer and the sc have a choke? Anyway, I don't see putting this saw together and am going to part it out, let me know if you are looking for a part. KZ

No confusion. SCs have a choke. Excellent saw.

Thanks for the knowledge, I may look around for a clutch cover and recoil to put the old girl back together again.

Got a IEL Pioneer HB with a Tillotson MD-55B that floods. It looks to me like someone installed this choke butterfly wrong. Anyone familiar these?

My super 3270sc advertising brochure states the super has a manual choke.

I need to down size due to an up coming move, if anyone is looking for a running 3270 super that runs or this 3270sc in a basket that only needs side covers let me know. I also have a sweat 650 and some P41's and such. KZ

I know, I saw it on ebay but it's Pioneer specific and cool!

Many years ago Bardahl Oil did a promo that put a Kennedy half dollar in every can of engine treatment, I found a case of it at a yard sale for $4.00 and made $12.00 in change after using the oil treatment.

Hello, I'm pretty new at AS but I picked up my first Pioneer today a p41hp it runs great, came with book that says run on 24:1 ratio with changes in today's oil should I stick with that ? Synthetic or not ?
Also chain brake spring is broke so looking for that and a gas cap (someone crossthreaded this one) if anyone has a parts saw? And or does anyone know what other saws caps interchange? Thanks

40: 1 is fine with today's oils
