    The stone finish work makes so much of a difference it's crazy! Even just taking a stock cylinder and giving the proper texture on the intake tract makes a difference. It can be night and day. That's why I love your videos so much, you know what you are doing through experience. 😎😎👍🏻👍🏻

    Iron Horse is looking to improve flow which is the key to making any 2 cycle engine fly. Ruff on intake side to break surface tension of fuel on exhaust side slick & polished to avoid carbon. I agree with his thinking. What if you cut slots in the crank weights at correct angle to give a fan effect. This will force fuel air mixture thru transfers I have done this on model engines and improved their performance greatly. Very small to 100 hp 2 cycle engines are the same. Port timing is tricky- gain here lose there. Do you want a work saw or a hotrod. Saw engineers were looking performance and unit to live. Love to watch your videos.

    Dr. Ironhorse, congratulations to you sir as you’re closing in on 1,000 subs! I was #90, I think, and VERY MUCH enjoy and appreciate your educational videos! I searched for porting videos and IMO this is the best one I’ve watched and will no doubt watch over a few times. I live in corn country, south central Nebraska, so never been around timberlands and logging but since my youth have been intrigued and interested in logging. Firewood is as close as I’ll ever get but can play with chainsaws. I want to try a little porting. I plan to start with a couple of junk cylinders then hopefully do a couple old Homelites, XL12 and 340, then possible a 359 and a Dolmar PS5105 blah, blah, blah...Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Keep blest and blessing as you’re doing. Fat, gimpy, white haired, red faced, old, Nebraska fan thanks you.

    After looking over the new cylinder I bought for the 372 that I am building; I now know why Stihl’s often have problems with the deco kicking out before the saw starts. Stihl saws have a deco port leading directly into the combustion cylinder, whine Husky has it on the side of the cylinder with only a small hole going into the cylinder. Not enough compression can act on the deco valve to close it early. Pretty simple physics to me. I just wonder why Stihl was so stupid in putting the deco directly into the combustion dome, where compression is the greatest.

    good video , the benefit of air/oil cooled engines no water jackets or in the case of two strokes no valve guides to contend with. my brothers 75cc no name chinsese saw which i think may be of the ebay giantz brand has two large open walled transfer ports with the strip up the centre of each port (34mm wide , 36mm long), not enclosed like the one you worked on, his has the tunnel ram taper you talked about. its just a dissasembled junked saw. it has a 51mm bore and a dome piston , supprised me for a very cheap throw away.

    OK ironhorse I completely understand everything ur doing on these porting jobs.... except the angles..... probably because I don't and never ported a 2 stroke..... I understand the grind but I know that you are also reshaping the port's so you can also put the charge in the jug where you want it to ignite..... if maybe you could explain in a little more detail about that in one of your videos.... I think I just need a little bit of that knowledge u have.... just a little.... so I can get my old brain 🧠 towards the right direction.... then I can head in the direction to think and think about it I will...then it can sink in and I will really get it...... have a good one sir.....

Very interesting and informative content 👍 I know you said before you weren’t talking anymore orders for saws till after buckin’ stock so that’s cool with me but maybe after buckin’ stock I might enquire about having some work done on one of mine , which are your favourite huskies to work on? I know you like the older ones , as do I! I’m not really into all that autotune jazz so I have several older xp huskies! Thanks again Harv much love 👍💪❤️

      Ironhorse Chainsaw hello buddy, been using the 390xp today and what you told me to do is exactly what it needed :) Before, it had the rpm but the torque was low, now it has the rpm and the torque is spot on, it makes me smile 😀
      Couple of questions please, do you think an unlimited coil is worth it, and, when the piston is at bdc I noticed the top of the piston slightly interferes with the bottom of the upper transfers. In one of your vids you said you had a get-a-round for that, what’s that and do you get gains?
      Thanks for all your advice, it’s been golden :)

    • @theironhorse6600
      @theironhorse6600  4 роки тому +2

    Hey ironhoese, I'm looking to build a 441c with a big bore, and if I can figure out what crank/ rod to use to stroke it, then port work and adjustable carb I've been a timber cutter in and out for 8 years, and tired of company baugyt just just get the job done saws, love the info, I'm leaning a lot I didn't know anmbout 2 strokes, thanks and I'd sit and watch for that three is so hours for you to really finish a good saw out,
