The New MS880 AS Compared To An 088

[Deets066]

Oh man......

 

[Deets066]

Whats the jug look like

 

[gunnusmc03]

Do you cut the leg like some people do with a 461 coil?

 

[Deets066]

I'm gonna go get some Chinese food........I'll be back later. Then we'll see how to make the MS880 100% unlimited......and we'll talk about how Keith scored this dang piston.

Carb setting too lean? Never seen a score that narrow. But if it can happen I'll be sure to be the one to do it

 

[nyctreeman]

You need a flywheel and coil without the limiter ... that match each other, correct?

 

[Ron660]

How do we make the 880 an unlimited saw?

Will the 088 coil fit the 880?

 

[mdavlee]

Will the 088 coil fit the 880?

Not the newest version there.

I think the Chinese date night led into a quick game of twister with Mastermind on offense. Or he's still on the crapper............................

I'm interested to see the difference in the 088/880 piston vs the NE 880 piston.

 

[Mastermind]

I have heard a old model (not auto tune) 441 coil works.

It does work.......but ain't unlimited.

Whats the jug look like

It's just fine. Heck this piston is far from ruined. Like Ted said though, OEM piston prices are very affordable these days.

Do you cut the leg like some people do with a 461 coil?

Tree Monkey tried cutting that leg off the 461 coil. He said it made no difference.

 

[Mastermind]

Ted said he was interested in seeing both pistons.......well. The other saw is lightly scored too.

 

[Mastermind]

Anyway, back to the differences.

The jugs are different on the exhaust side because of the muffler mounting flanges. Plus they are different on the intake side too.

 

[Mastermind]

The intakes, and intake rings are different.

 

[Mastermind]

The 088 carb.



The intelli-carb connection sleeve is cracked on this carb.......I wonder???



The 880 carb.

 

[Mastermind]

The venturis are both the same size. 57/64

 

[Turbo BBQ]

Cool Japanese castings. (Did I just say that aloud?)

 

[cuttinties]

Anyway, back to the differences.

The jugs are different on the exhaust side because of the muffler mounting flanges. Plus they are different on the intake side too.

Carb sits closer to the intake on the left cylinder? If that's the case it'll make more rpm all things equal. Nice to see these big saws. Not something that's as common as I'd like in my area.

 

[Mastermind]

No.......same distance away.

 

[Deets066]

Probably cracked from sittin so long, wonder what year it is. As I bought it as NOS
