Chainsaw Repair

minimac 25,35,110, is it all the same engine?

ahhhww,the funny macs.  i think i will try to port one i got,just for fun.at the best it would change nothing,at the worst,it will grenade

 You won't grenade the Mini .I have one with a pipe and  can't blow it up .

Ha ,that thing is just a toy .Fact the average Stihl 020/200T will walk away from it as will a Poulan S-25 if properly tuned .

For all I know it might be the fastest Mini Mac in the world but that really isn't saying much .

You'll probabley never find one that is actually "worn out " because very few of them ran long enough .You will find a lot of them with the original chains still on them that died on the vine and were banished to a shelf for the last 30 years .

Long time ago the tree timmers would buy either a mini or a Homelite super 2 and might at best get two years out of them ,more likely one season .When they died they just bought another at about 100 a pop .TSC for example and K-mart often sold them for 89.95 on sale .Fact I have 5 or 6 in various stages of non running all freebies .

As far as changing the porting scheme on a mini there's not much you can do to it other than a little to the exhaust port .Which in itsself might be a challange but they will never be a tiny little screaming cookie cutter .

On the other hand almost nobody actually buys one and being a freebie if you screw it up you aren't out a dime .
