Interesting video - thanks. Does the weight of the saw figure into interpreting the results of the pull test for compression? It would seem that a heavy saw would fall faster.

I need help! When I detached the extension pole, the green plug got yanked out of the pole, it's unseated from the pole. I can't shove it back in and there's a weird silver screw on the side of the grey bit that looks like a rivet or hex bolt..any idea how to reseat the plug or remove that bolt to better access the end?

I was going to get a compression tester but a couple decent mechanics showed as you did, testing by feel, AND they pointed out that pistons and rings can be bad and you still get good compression. They also pointed out that some saws showing low compression had clean piston and rings and ran well. I think examining the piston and rings visible condition is more useful. A pressure and vacuum test is more important, I think.

Great video buddy! I bought a very similar one, but different name brand, same fundamentals. We bought this to use for our Honda mower we just bought this year, 2024. I’m a true believer, and I tell my kids, keeping an eye on the oil levels of all your engines, is a great and responsible thing; from cars, to lawnmower engines, the lifeblood of of your engine is the oil! Take care!

@magicone9327Ай бұрын
@@kraftzion rings wear down, not so much in the older ones when poulan made a good production saw. When they switched to selling to residential everything went downhill. I have had older poulans that would have been used felling or on the landing. Newer saw made with Plastics make them so much lighter but the plastics warp over time. I have a poulan 4218 that the clutch had become hot because the owner/user did not understand that when running, the brake must be released or the clutch will continue to spin and the drum won’t, it got hot. Apparently the chain wouldn’t stop so he tripped the brake when it sat idling. That practice was probably what took the temper out of the clutch springs and made it continue turning the chain. Anyway the plastic around the clutch and crankshaft melted enough that the oil pump drive moved away from the driven oil gear and would not oil. No repair for that one. Still have it as the engine is ok just the plastic is ruined. The old metal ones would have survived. Stihl uses chrome plate cylinders with higher quality ring material. On the cheaper home owner saws the rings wear rapidly and then the combustion gases start leaking by and it’s not long that the saw either seizes or loses so much compression that it just won’t fire.

This method doesnt work as good on a lot of newer stuff because they have built in compression release to make it easier to start. The drop and hold the string method that is.

@markluxton34022 ай бұрын
I have a tip for you. The way you pull on the cord makes a big difference to the wear of the starter. It is better to pull up any slack so the starter is engaged and even till you feel the compression, before yanking hard to start. When you just grab and pull without taking up the slack, those tiny parts that grab the shaft to spin it, get slammed very hard.

@@fallingsuncreations9270 On a couple of my XL-12's, none of which are original new to me, I had to file down the rope spool quite a bit, where the dogs engage, to get it back to more or less flat. Worked, but now there is less metal. Are they called dogs? lol Another thing I noticed can happen if one pulls without taking up the slack, is the rope somehow drops a loop, becoming slack, with the pull handle hanging. Rare, but I have seen this happen. Partly due to the spool not returning/pulling well enough.
