Havent ran one of these since they came out new.  Was that like 10 years ago?  But anyhow running 24" today full comp buried in the ash. I was impressed for 74cc. Also liked how quite it was in the cuts. 
Only thing wrong was carb was loose and carb L and I out of tune.

Why the heck do folks still buy these clutch drums with them freaking holes in them. Horrible idea.

Plus a new sign.  Being owner was doing me a favor on the sign. I gave him 30mins of free labor and his saw back at no cost too.

I heard those drums with the holes are self cleaning and keeps the clutch running cooler.
There was a self cleaning guide bar with the same idea patented in the 1970's by a guy from B.C.
Oregon tested it and reported it ran cooler and stayed cleaner between the rails longer.
Appears Oregon bought the guy out and that was the last ever heard of the bar.
