This is such a great video! Thanks for this! Only thing I’d add is I like to put rope in the cylinder to keep the crank from turning while I hold the flywheel full advance then tighten the nut.
Dubb - what episode did you talked about how and what you rig up to connect your digital degree gauge? Just curious...and it might help your many students workout what and how do.
Im only home 3 or 4 days a month and dont have much time to try different stuff. I was wondering if you could tell me if after doing a base gasket delete or shaving the bottom of the cylinder is a timing advance necessary? It seems like the timing would change with the jug being lower but im not sure if it would need advance or not. Id appreciate any advice you might have with this. Thanks man for all the videos also
@@matthewknight5641 Dropping the cylinder changes the actual port timing numbers, but the ignition timing stays the same and is controlled by the flywheel position. Some saws need the ignition timing advanced and some not so much. But most seem to enjoy a 3-6° advance.
@@dubbssawshop seems like the ignition timing would be off a little from stock if the jug moved down. I mean I know the cylinder ports timing would change but I'm not sure if I should try moving the flywheel to get more advance or if it really makes much difference. I think I'll try it next chance I get and just see how it acts.
Hey Dubb. Awsome video. I just did this to that ms250 Ive been emailing you about. Appreciate the content and advice. You have another email in your inbox hahaha 😂
Or you could simply find a way to hold the flywheel still (anywhere in rotation) without lining up a mark to a fin, and turn the crank, instead of the flywheel, and watch how many degrees the digital angle finder says when moving crank each direction. If the crank moves 5° each direction, then it's 5° advanced.

Nice Tip! It's the little stuff that makes things easier/better.

You are very welcome!!! 👍🏻

I'll have to do one on the digital wheel, I don't think I've put one out yet. But it's so much easier to set up than the wheel and wire. 👍🏻

Great tip 👍👍
I appreciate you checking the video out. 👍🏻
Good video bud
Thank you Donny 👍🏻!!! Pleasure to see you here man. Hey, how do I order one of them slick Walker bars!! They look amazing.
You can oreder on line or call walkers saw shop thanks
@@donnywalker4691 thanks man. Will do. 👍🏻
Would a ported 372xp benefit from a small timing advance of 5-6 degrees ?.. thanks
@@darrenpierce9903 I think so, most saws appreciate a 3-5° advance. Id say try it, you'll know if you go to far.
@@dubbssawshop thanks,will give it a try 👍
Im going to have to break down and get me one of those digital degree wheels
@@loweralabamahomesteading4661 they are def nice and easy to set up!!! I got this one from dyno joe
@dubbssawshop yeah I've seen him on his website. It's just hard to make me bite the bullet pay $100 for a degree wheel lol
@loweralabamahomesteading4661 I feel you there, was hard to bite the bullet myself. But it definitely pays off with shorter set up times in the end.
Thanks
Solid 💪😎 timing advice info
Sweet!

I'll have to dive in and give it a look. Honestly I have neglected my emails for a few weeks and need to catch up.
its all good. i know you've had a rough couple of weeks. thanks for always being willing to help
How much are you taking off the key?
@@razmataz275 usually anywhere from 1/8 to 1/4 of the keyway is removed. That is typically about 3* on the lower 1/8 side and 6-8* with the 1/4 key
Or you could simply find a way to hold the flywheel still (anywhere in rotation) without lining up a mark to a fin, and turn the crank, instead of the flywheel, and watch how many degrees the digital angle finder says when moving crank each direction.
If the crank moves 5° each direction, then it's 5° advanced.
👍👍
👍🆙👽
👍🏻 Doc!!!! Hope you had a great weekend!!!!
@@dubbssawshop Y'all as well, back at it tomorrow😁👊
Thanks for sharing the tips. That's a very useful digital device.
Yes it is, makes the timing game a lot easier. I thank you to for offering great products and looking to make our lives a bit easier for repairs 👍🏻
