That looks great! Bet the owner of the saw will have a smile after pulling that trigger:msp_thumbup:

Thanks, I think he'll like it. I hope his crew enjoys it too.

I'm gonna try to find an unlimited coil that will work on this thing, just to see what kinda rpms it has. I've got it tune about right in the wood, but just curious to what kind if rpms this thing will turn.

Does anybody know if the 362 had an unlimited coil?? Or if the 361 coil will work??
 
limited coil

stumpy you mentioned this is a limited coil saw. how do you set the high jet if you don't have a tach? i have the same saw and did a muffler mod, in a similar location (looks good btw). I opened the H jet up 1.5 to 2 turns out but now you have me worried i am against the rev limit and not actually 4 stroking at WOT.
 
I got 8.3 on that 7 pin!!! It sounds like it ain't even working Stump!!! Take them rakers down!!! I wanna see what it'll do at .040!!! Screw smoothness!!! We want nasty!!! Or send it my way of course, for "The gauntlet"...:rock: I'm thinkin' I could use a saw like that...
Even if it is a creamsickle...

In there, lies the problem with rev limited coils after mods are done... The saw wants more, but that damned coil says no... So tuning in the wood is your only option... Got a 9010 with the same problem...

And to tune in the wood you have to hear it 4-stroke even under slight load? Need a little clarification on that, even though a MM is probably as modded as I'll ever get.

Not that I know of... The saw should be cutting clean in the wood... No burble... But as soon as you let up in the cut, a modded saw will bounce off the rev limiter... At least the two I got do... They're a PIA as far as I'm concerned... But I wouldn't trade the saws for anything...
Just sayin...:rock:

i just was talking to stumpy on the phone i think he got me talked into turning a 880 into a pipe saw.
 
so if it sounds good in the wood should be OK? can you adjust it rich enough to 4 stroke under a little cutting pressure and then lean it up just a hair? i like my 362 and don't want to burn it up prematurely :)

How i found stump was that we run a 20" bar on a 362 so when I'm climbing i can block down wood with a decent power to weight ratio rear handle saw. the problem with it was the tourqe compared to the 361. i sent it to him trying to get the in the cut power the 361 one had when its running at rpm theirs not much difference but when we stopped the 362 in the cut we usually couldn't get it turning again without bringing the bar out and getting the rpms going again. and when your climbing its a real PITA. but for firewood cutting their probably neck and neck.
 
Hahahahaha!!!!!

ya i been wanting to do this for a while just was skimming through the forums one day and read how honest of a person he sounded and said thats the guy. I'm gonna be sending all my work saws to him over the next year or so.

once i get this 362 back he's gonna get another 362 we have and try to take it a little farther see if he can gain some more.

That's what I did with this one. I richened it up to where it would load up in a hard cut, then start leaning it out till it would pull good & clean without burbleing withlight pressure. I hope that makes sense. I'm not the best at explaining things.:bang:

When I had the 28'' bar on it I richened it up till it would not hit the limiter. I got it to run & hold 13,800 without limiting. But at that setting it wouldn't hardly cut without dogging out in the cut & almost dieing from bein too rich. THen I leaned it out like I described above.

That's gonna be a fun project.:rock:
