I've been told there is no such thing as a dumb question so here goes.  Why does the ring pin location difference on 162/962, 165 matter? I don't understand.

I have no idea why two pistons are offered. There are 2 962 cylinders. The pistons with the center rear pin have cyls with a different intake.

It seems that the 165 cyl is a shared cyl with the Efco concrete saw. May explain the poor power characteristics.

Got the 962 back today. Still have to mod the muffler and try it out.

Found the muffler mod. Sneaky. Not one sign that this saw has been ported. Extreme sleeper saw.  :o
