Do I file just one end of the rings

 

[pioneerguy600]

A bit off both ends is what I always do but it likely wouldn/t matter much.

 

[guy with a chainsaw]

wanted to ask two or so years back I got the 1110 and when i was looking at bars and chains and my brother was trying to find a replacement sprocket that was 3/8 chain but all he was able to find was this 8 tooth 3/8 NOS then we went to a true valve and the guy there helped find a 3/8 chain but up to now i replaced the bar and chain with a Oregon 3/8 and cut a oak with this bar and chain but still are lumpy or sticky and do not move easy and yes it oils very well

It sounds like the chain is the problem. Is it the regular 3-8 regular or pico.

 

[guy with a chainsaw]

I really don't know what type of chain it is I will look on the box I do know it's a 3/8 chain and bar

Sorry guys, I've been dealing with some stuff and have not been around. The saw I built came out perfect. I ran a tank of gas through it and hung it up in the basement. There it has sat since. I did not file the rings at all. If I remember correctly I used OEM SXL rings.

 

[guy with a chainsaw]

What was you psi on those rings

 

[Jasonrkba]

I didn't run it long enough for the rings to even seat. It ran good though. Just don't expect 11k rpm. She is a slow one.

 

[guy with a chainsaw]

Right ruffly how long should it take to seat the rings in tanks of fuel

 

[Jasonrkba]

2-3.

 

[guy with a chainsaw]

Cool I've only run 2 I think with my set of rings so they still are seating in

 

[Jasonrkba]

It will noticably get rich when they do.

 

[guy with a chainsaw]

Nice to know thanks for getting back to this form.

That chain should work correctly with that bar as long as the drive sprocket on the crank is correct for 3/8"regular pitch chain. Is it the chain links themselves that are stiff?

 

[guy with a chainsaw]

Well the chain moves but it's chunky In the bar when on the saw off the saw it fine and moves very nice,

The nos clutch is a wild cat 3/8 8t clutch and that is all that's on the box.

 

[pioneerguy600]

The number of drive teeth would not matter as long as the pitch/3/8" is correct. Does the clutch drum spin smooth when the chain is off? If the pitch of the clutch drum sprocket is off then the chain its self will pull jerky like.

 

[guy with a chainsaw]

Yes the drum is smooth
