Who on here can mod the 201t?

mastermind can do it.

 

[treeman75]

I've read you can get it to run and cut like a 200, but I'm a little reluctant to do it myself. Opening up the muffler really did make a big difference, but I know I can get a lot more. I might try porting on a junk saw to see how it works and go from there. I would want to send my 201 to someone who does it professionally though, as expensive as that saw is.

Thats all that mastermind does, full time.

I'd love to take the boom and trow it on a nice Pete or Kenworth.

100 k with all the turning and maneuvering about average. replace bushings in center and ends of walking beams you will be as good as new. truck won't get any more rental rate if on pete or kw. brazilian motor was dependable and thrifty with fuel. 270 hp version was good. has no prob spending most of its day above idle which crane work is. big engines don't like the low speed/load use. do some repairs, use it, make money. you didn't buy the virgin mary. you got a nice simple truck there.

I'm actually amazed at the nonexistent fuel consumption on the motor DB. It's crazy good!

Dear Sirs,
Thank you for your replies on the tree of hope. Your information is greatly appreciated. As a Student Gov't Officer I would like to do something for Arbor Day. Any suggestions. I will have to present them at the Board meeting by January. I appreciate your help

Dammit! I need to stop spending money!

Hey luckydad, what mix you use with them and is it 40to1?

 

[treeman75]

I have been using stihl synthetic mix in the gray bottle.

U can run a 16 on a stock 200 all day long. I can only imagine what a modified one would do with a 14

That reminds me, gotta drop my second 200 off to get rebuilt this week.

Was checking my e mail earlier and had a nice surprise. A $3600 cake job I had thought I lost came in. They were just waiting for approval from the committee. One of these high end communities where they have to get the okay to cut anything down. Guess I know where my next round of hookers, booze and steaks is coming from. Lol.

Hey luckydad, what mix you use with them and is it 40to1?

I mix 12.8oz to 4 gallons of non ethanol gas. That's pretty close to 40.1 mix. I like the Belray H1R oil, I think Randy uses it also. But if I can't pic it up I use the synthetic stihl mix.

I run a 14" reduced weight on one saw for trimming, and 16" on the other two for removals, and swap them out.

How long did it take to burn the plastic after the shield was knocked loose? Mine has about ten hours on it with a loose shield and no signs of melting

Depends on what you are cutting,,I will get some pics Tuesday.
