Most cylinders nowadays have a nikasil coating instead of chrome. It's a tough coating that protects the cylinder. Glad to see you got this saw back up and running again. Thanks for sharing 👍
Man. What a great video. I am starting to rebuild my Farm Boss. This is what I needed. I don’t understand to this day WHY mine overheated or caught fire. I’ve always had gas in one side and oil in the other but Ace Hardware said it was because there was no oil in the fuel. What?
Glad you liked it. So many things can burn them up never know. I have a couple other videos with lots more info (tear down, filing ring gaps and putting back together) Although different brands they are all pretty much the same in those 3 areas. I think they will help you a lot with your rebuild. th-cam.com/video/wtv_F0yJIpE/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/Wm5wT1WrQSA/w-d-xo.html Thanks for your support and save the ole farm boss.
@@AA-tb4ff I like those little Orange Stihl brand bottles. My personal stuff at home it last most the summer mixed in with a gallon mid-grade 89 octane gas.
Do you have a video of full disassembly? I just got a 271 and I always like to know how to properly tear down and repair all the equipment I own. But I can’t seem to find a full tear down video on the 271 anywhere.
Sorry that I disappointed you. This saw like most came to me with a box of parts already removed. I don't have any video of it anymore. Just don't have the space to keep them all. If it helps any at all when working on this model. It's easier to remove the carb and head as one complete assembly rather than taking everything off on the saw individually. I do quite a few carburetor jobs like this as well.
If your talking about the cummins its finished. I have hours of video to edit. So much that Ive been breaking it down to smaller parts. Like the carburator rebuild and governor install. Thanks for watching and subcribing.
Another way to remove that bearing if you lack an air chisel is put thr whole thing in the freezer for several hours, then heat the bearing with a torch. Ive actually dropped press fit wheel bearings in place by hand with the opposite... freezing the bearings overnight and putting the hub in the oven.

Good info about that coating. Thanks for sharing it.
Just the cheaper saws have nikasil, the pro saws still have chrome
good info

what kind of oil did you put in the oil tank and what kind of gas do you run Denny?

@@CaptFerd not disappointed at all, thanks for the info. Just surprised that seemingly nobody on TH-cam has a 271 year down video!
Honing should be done in a figure eight pattern with a drill for speed.
Thank you for the video, I need to tear mine down. How is the reassembly video coming?

Thats a really cool idea. Ill have to give that a try next time. Thanks for sharing thanks for watching.
