So what does one of these Makita equal in the Dolmar?  Makita DCS 520i  = Dolmar ?

These engines are like a Dolmar 111i

The 520i is open port and the closed port one equivalent to the Dolmar 115 is the 5200i

To add a little to this

In 1997 they changed from a full time oil pump to one that just oiled when the chain was running

At the same time they changed to a plastic top handle
