Solo twin 611, nice saw Mark.
The more pertinent question is, did dolmar make this saw? Just wondering since it's in the dolmar thread...
Wish I could help on the spark plugs mark but have no clue!

Made by Solo, should be in the Solo sticky.
Probably should post a pic of one of my old Dolmars, CC with rare AV rear handle.

Thought the old Germans would like a peak.

Brad Snelling is rebuilding a Solo Twin. He might have a source of plugs. Also, about 20 years also Champion could supply sparkplugs for an antique Hart-Parr tractor. They ran off a batch of the antique types every couple of years so the guys ordered well ahead of time.

Carb setting H & L? Dolmar 6400.
Took the limiter off the high side. None on the low side.

Found the 'carb' problem. Flywheel side main bearing loose. Sucking air.
Bearing and seal numbers for PS6400?
FW bearing
960 102 159 (6202 beating)
FW oil seal
962 900 052 (15x24x7)
Clutch bearing
960 102 179 (6203 C4)
Clutch oil seal
962 900 061 (17x28x 5 or 4)
Crankcase gasket
038 111 042
Recommend ordering from edge and engine in NY state. Easy online or phone order, reasonable shipping prices and quick shipping. Or Nate on here is a dealer and can order and mail them for you.

Discovered the front bar mount stud had worked out a tad on the 6400. It prevented the bar from laying flat. The chain now spins free where before it was in a bind. The Homie bar seems to fit well enuff. Have to check the oil channel/hole matchup.
Would a 1996(ish) 6400 have a cat in the muffler?
May just open the outlet up some and call it good,

Shouldn't be a cat unless someone sealed mufflers off a 6421 or newer 6400. The cat mufflers look like below and have a front muffler support like a husky. Your old red top should have a regular muffler. The original volume of the 6400 mufflers and decent size opening made opening the muffler a negligible performance increase until a 73-85cc cylinder is on them.

Am I following it correctly that the 'big bore kit' takes the 6400 from 47mm to 52mm?
That is quite a jump! Not that this one will get the change but if I stumble over one needing a p & c it's something to consider.

Did the 6400 come with a Tilly or Walbro?
Zama is not my favorite brand. I've not had much luck with them.

Dropped the metering lever a touch but still loads up and dies at idle with 'L' screw damn near closed.
On the plus side adjusted the high side for max speed (by ear) plus a quarter turn back open.
Try one more time drop the lever more while waiting for a carb kit. No welch plugs on hand for Zama.

Sayyyyyyy.......
If someone put a smaller, weaker spring in for the metering lever, it would load up and run pig rich,, right?

I would say very likely, Do you have a pop of gauge?
I would check it before just swapping springs.
