Good work! I've dismantled 2 of these right down and put back together . By far the easiest saw I've done. Hard part was getting the damn lip on the cylinder down without snagging the ring. Took alot of trys haha
That's my number one saw use it ,everyday go to....ibhave felling kit suspension and bark box with west coast filter..I would love it ported ..it's best saw in my opinion..I heard they have sloppy pistons from Donnie walker
@@richardflagg3084 yea the first one I bought during virus last year it leaked out of crank Case by muffler side .before I made a cutt.BUT second third work great ..I still have new 500i .no gas in her to her ported I tried your email it wouldn't work
I don't know how many teams of engineers they used to design the 441, but I think they all got their parts included into the build. I did a video several months ago and made a point to show how many parts had to come off just to pull the cylinder. Had a whole bench full of parts 🤣🤣
@@richardflagg3084 I’m not a Stihl guy but a local asked to me work it over for him. If I’d of known how big of a cluster fuck it was I probably wouldn’t of done it. And people think 562’s are hard to work on, they are a piece of cake compared to that dam thing! It did run well when I got done though at least
That needs to be there to support the piston skirt at bottom of the stroke. It may be fine to remove it, but that's an expensive maybe it there is a problem.
There was a time when they were offered with a traditional carb/ non-MTronic. Part number 1142 120 0600. If I were to try it and couldn't find one of those I'd try an RWJ off a 372 Xtorq or a WJ off a 660 but I'm not sure that would would work even it you swapped the butterfly shafts. I cant think of another Zama carb with a venturi that size.
In regard to Schaeffer oil, has anyone tried their 9046 2-Cycle Outdoor Power Equipment Oil? I notice that it meets the JASO requirements and has a higher flash point of 242 F compared to 7000 TC-W3. Viscosity looks almost the same. But! The cost from their website is $279.45 for a 12 quart case whereas the 7000 is $138.83 for a 12 quart case😮. I paid $7.49 a quart at a local auto parts store last month for the 7000 so I will check locally if this 9046 is available to try. Nice build BTW!

Rich, nice work on machining and grinding.
Man that saw sounds good.
Nice work Richard 👍
Thanks Gordy!
Nice work! Rips
Looks like a nice saw
Snappy! Sounds great👍🏻 again, if that's the quicksilver, looks pretty good.
This one is Schaeffers 9000.
@@richardflagg3084 👍🏻 who says you will always trash air cooled ope with "boat" oil!
@@aaronpowell4885 I'll stick with my 7000 boat oil. The 9000 is the full synthetic recommended for motorcycle and atv
@@aaronpowell4885 Need to see the tear down on the saw run
on 20 to 1 biodiesel. Probably it smells like popcorn running.

Trim some of the plastic on your ring compressor to compensate for the cylinder neck. You'll still have to use it at an angle, but it helps.
@@richardflagg3084 didn't even think about that ! Thanks !
Best medium large saw .weight is everything. And flick ablity
I love the channel man I would love to see some performance work on a 361

As far as the piston issues, I haven’t seen any issues. Donny works on a lot more than I do

@@richardflagg3084 lunch break. Had pull stump out with comealong,and truck chains..nighmare
🤘🏻
Did not notice that exhaust when I installed bark box .wonder why it's cocked like that
I'm sure some German engineer could answer that better than this ole redneck.
Nice work, anything has to be an improvement over a 441! They suck to work on, I just finished one up

@@mikegott3364 Once you've done a few they aren't that bad.
@@richardflagg3084 yea about like anything I guess
@@mikegott3364 I still don't like working on them just between you and me.😀
Rich, couldn’t you just completely remove (machine off) the part of the jug assembly that sticks down into the case? If not then why?

Has anyone ever tried mounting a 460 carb on a 462?

I and others have run 7000 for years and I have done video teardowns to prove that it does an exceptional job.
I use Amsoil Sabor @ 40-1. I sure like it! What are your thoughts on this oil.
Any timing advance?
Yes, but just a little.
You must have tree service bring you wood..that's good firewood..just split big red oak from removal
Work at a tree service two days a week and use the wood lot for test cuts on bigger saws. Keeps the mess down at the home shop
@@richardflagg3084 let me know if your free to port .thanks
