Chainsaw Repair

I think it is going to be right there with a 066 and maybe a little better in the big wood. Problem is I am on a pulp logging job now and won't be any big hardwood for a couple of weeks or so.

Well I got it together earlier this week. Runs pretty even with an air leak. Set the tune and went and did some cookie cutting with it. Found every time I would turn the saw and have the flywheel side up it would speed up at  idle and want to quit on transition. So I figured flywheel side seal. Replaced seal on the flywheel side today and decided to do a pressure and vac test. Holds vac well. Just leaks on pressure. One leak was on the manifold easy fix just tighten the clamp. The other leak is a bit more involved the case gasket is leaking on the intake side up the cylinder flange. So I will have to tear it down again. I did try to tighten the case bolt some more but the leak is still there. I did not figure it would fix it as I torqued the case bolts when I put the case halves together plus they are new old stock cases.

Well yes I do. I think I will just keep it to my self. Got the parts on the way should be here tomorrow. Once I get the cases back apart I will flatten them on plate glass with sandpaper. Thinking I will use some permatex high tack gasket sealant as well.

So how they do?  Compared to the same class saws you were used to in 066 660 661?

Has any one tried relocating the fly wheel to the 9010 coil?  If it was tried I missed it in this thread.
