- I am working on tuning up this old Homelite chainsaw. I blocked off the governor so let's see if it makes an improvement over the performance.

It's important to understand the way these governors work. The ball valve will vibrate off the seat when the frequency of vibrations reaches a specified pitch. Otherwise they are not increasing the amount of fuel set by the High speed mixture screw. Blocking them off wouldn't normally cause any change in behavior unless the engine RPM reaches the point in which the valve is designed to vibrate off the seat. At that point, the governor will allow additional fuel into the high speed circuit causing the RPM to drop which in turn would close the valve. This of course happens very rapidly. You can in fact lean the high speed mixture with the normal adjustment screw to the point that you can seize the engine. As a Homelite employee back in the 1980s, I was preparing saws for a trade show one day and pulled a new 750 out of the box and started it up to check it. Within about 20 seconds it threw the connecting rod because it was too lean and over revved
I am actually working on a video right now that discusses the point of to lean. I am making notes to try and remember points that I should touch base with.
Dude you 5 away from 100 subs. It sounds good, looked like a lot of work!
So close!
Sounds like you have a great saw, can't wait to see the difference more aggressive sharpening will make.👍👍😁🇺🇸
I was actually mad at myself for forgetting to do it. I knew better! I decided to go with it anyway.
@@Smittyschainsaws yeah excitement always overpowers logic, I've done the same thing 👍😁👍

To be honest I do not remember what the compression should be. I will have to check.
