Wildthing Races at GTG's.....

[67L36Driver]

I think the 46cc is larger where it bolts too the case,taller/bigger flywheel etc. also on the wiidthing/woodshark the bottom of the cyl is retained by the same bolts that hold it too the case and the 46 has seperate fastners for that.You might be able too pull it off but I doubt you could pass it off as a 42cc.

Thanks, that's what I wanted to find out. Looks like 42cc is the max size on the "wild thing" platform.

WT lives

One oil pump, fuels lines, primer bulb, and a coah beah later, my WhiteTrash lives.:hmm3grin2orange:
Fired right up and idles. Revs quick and sounds strong. :rockn:
I did a small muff mod before I ever fired it. No carb work done yet, just opened the meters up a bit. Threw the 18" B&C off my PM10-10 on it and it's oiling good. Haven't hung it in any wood yet. Raining here.

Now for the bad. Dood I got it from said it quit oiling and he put it away. Yeah, after he toasted the housing. LOL.:msp_rolleyes:
The little plastic WT got so hot the bar mount is all warped and out of square with the crankshaft. I heated it with a heat gun and tweaked it over a bit. Not quite there. I don't figure on it holding up. Gonna scrounge around here for another housing off a DOA WT at my local saw guy. He has one laying out back that was pretty much FUBAR. Didn't look at the housing close enough to see if it was straight. I know the oil pump was shot.
Need to hit some wood with it and make some chips tomorrow.

i just tuned it before i blow it apart again did't have a tach on it but it sounded like it was up there and four-stroking!!!
i don't know if i wanna do anything else to it the fricken thing screams and it has power in the wood i also did a compression check on and it's about 155psi

:msp_thumbup: That's good. What gauge you using?
Mine was around 120-125, but my gauge adapter was too long to seat on the O-ring, so I had to compromise and use T tape on the threads. I'm going to check it again since I fired it a while ago.

You newer guys are gonna find that the Wild thang is actually an amazing saw........For $100.00.

People p!ss me off thinking they should get an MS361 for the price of a wildthing!!!

Dude!
You paid $100.00!!!

The saw is GREAT for its intended purpose!

If you only trim a few limbs or cut a rick of firewood for the fireplace once a year, it is actually over engineered!!!

Cheapest bang for the buck there is!!!

[kmcinms]

I think he just told you too become a felon.

And he does it with such class too. :frown:

 

[ckelp]

no, just attempt it lol it's wrong to go screw anyone like that....
not like the guy who buys a saw uses it one and returns it
you know anything that gets retund to wal mart or home depot that had gas in it gets drained of fluids and crushed no explication

Is that why my mower bought at the Home despot had such a discount and fuel in it?

:agree2:

 

[ckelp]

i tell you what

 

[MechanicMatt]

Do all these little poulans have the steel insert in the exhaust? And what do you guys do about them?

I see in masterminds photos that he just removed them and enlarged the ports, what purpose do you think they serve in the first place??

 

[kmcinms]

Mine has it in there. I have no idea why, other than it would be a lot easier to clean the carbon out of the port(insert). The guys that port these saws take them out. Mine is stock, so I left it in the port for now. One of the saw techs can tell you more about it.

I'm betting it has something to do with emmissions.

 

[ckelp]
