Picking up a G288xp clone to check out and have for a demo saw myself.

Opting for plane shipping again. Being the issues with ports now days going by boat.

Guy already built his 288 orange kit.

Check out that high top set up in orange. Not bad.

First start of G288 after a check over. ( video on chainsaw repair group of mine on FB )
With that style cylinder I will run the aftermarket decomp as long as it don’t leak.
Outer dawg fastener to short but no biggie for me as have them on hand.
Tank vent did seep a little on side.

Test and tune.

G288 I have no real good wood worthy till I get a downed log from farmer using tractor.
So put a 28” on made some rip cuts and some cross cuts. Got tuned rich right now and impressed.

I knew I ordered the 28” bar covers for a reason.

Not bad for stock G288 prebuilt only on 2nd tank.
After seeing the guys G288 kit numbers for base gasket delete and then after he measured his base gasket for me.

Oil pump removed pics added 2-20-22

Mine was leaking at the fitting to tank to pump. Pulled and used dirko. Fixed for a bit.

But something was always off about the adjuster. The 1 2 3 4 and the adjuster pin could fall out backed up a turn.

Farmertec stated they have a new batch of oilers now.

Seems alot with not working or just leaking out.
