I will take a bp655 or a P-65, whichever comes first haha but I would take a good bp655 over a P-65 because they seem to be more powerful?

 

[Boomer 87]

Idk for sure my 655 has the extra cylinder port that some dont have

 

[Kensie1988]

That may make up the extra 1000 rpm the 655 has on the P65

 

[Boomer 87]

Possible ive not run both

 

[Boomer 87]

Well no chainsaws to duscuss today, going to a training class for all wheel drive powertrain diagnostics

 

[astnmacgto]

As am I, and as I've been saying all day, I just wanna cut a tree down

 

[LonestarStihl]

I cut some with my 660 today should've done a video. It ate pretty hard. May have put the rakers a bit low not sure. Probably going to take it to the stihl dealer to have them do a proper tune just to be safe since I'm a rookie. Don't want to burn up my best saw

 

[Mac&Homelite]

Ugh, all I want to do is fire up a saw and run it especially after all the homework I've done today. I hate sitting at a computer all dang day. Day goes by like molasses, and it still feels like i've gotten nothing accomplished. But it's better to get it done now as the weather is not very nice out and the weekend is looking terrific.

Well new gaskets between the carb and intake on the Poulan didn't fix the leak.

Does this saw have reeds? Is there a gasket between the reed assembly and the saw?

Did you try fattening up the carb

 

[Kensie1988]

I started out 2 turns out and kept having to back down to 1-1/2 turns

I didn't replace that one gasket because it is a think gasket and looked and felt good when I had it out.

[Kensie1988]

[46 Poulan]
