Husqvarna CD2100 race saw teardown and plan of attack

This is going to be slow going but I want to base my channel on having you guys along for the ride and see the progress... hopefully I can get the outfit out of Arizona to record some of the cylinder boring and crank splitting... how cool would that be... I know I would find it super interesting 💯

[@jakechristianson6448]

Plum crazy and hulk green be a sick looking saw

[@cajun3197]

Yes that would be sick 🤘

[@cajun3197]

Sick build! A few of them old huskies had the seal integrated into the oil pump housing. All the 200 series did. Definitely built to last and be abused! I can’t wait to see the end result of this one😎

[@johnscustomsaws]

Saw is built like they fired anyone who mentioned a price point 💪

I'll be following this for sure.

[@brennancass3747]

I had more fun building a race saw than anything else to date. Getting to go all out on something will be a nice change of pace, at least it was for me.

[@johnscustomsaws]

Im just getting into them and im loving it... its exactly what I needed to spice things up in the shop... nitrous/turbos/old huskys lol

[@aaronbadgett4439]

i think its safe to say that you know what your doing! it hilarious how people always got to argue about how something isnt going to work1 and so what if it doesnt atleast you tried and think outside the box

[@johnarnettsways.8758]

You sr are great at what you do. Thank you for the valuable info. Have a merry Christmas ❤️🌲🌲🌲❤️

[@bourbondrinker4828]

You have a great channel man. I found you a few weeks ago when you were asking for view hours. Happy to see you get monetized now. Keep up the hard work man, you tear down saws so fast you take the stress out of it for people like me.

[@johnscustomsaws]

Thanks bud... it did go fast and I am actually making a bit of money already... more than expected so thats a nice surprise... thanks to you guys who watched these ridiculous videos lol

[@marksarkaquariums9056]

That saw is going to be Really Strong.It would be great if you could do a video on balancing the rotating assembly.

[@johnscustomsaws]

I want to try to get them to record it... thats outside my skillset so I have to outsource it and hopefully they will do me a solid and show the process... definitely no promises tho

[@Nitroxdude]

Nice, I’ve got a 298xp which is very close to the same saw , awesome big saw 💪

[@chrisseger6870]

A two fer! Merry Christmas Eve y'all!

[@hattersequiptmentrepairllc4661]

Hey brother. I bought the kit on Amazon for $40 with small and large separator and then the puller, all in one case.

[@billdiven5826]

great job,time for the young guns to do there thing.knolage is great and this built this country.ROCK ON!PASS THE KNOLAGE LIVE THE DREAM.

[@Junkyardmethod]

I’ve had a couple 2100’s. They were the shit for west coast fallers back in the day.

[@johnscustomsaws]

To me it seems like an 084 would blow the doors off this thing just from cylinder design and displacement... but I guess they are the saw to build for race saws so have to see i guess... the crankshaft and case are built really heavy so im thinking thats the appeal 🤷‍♂️ im definitely excited to see what happens

[@Junkyardmethod]

@@johnscustomsaws They run good. I was never like OMG this saw us awesome. In their time though I think it was a good size platform for a 100cc. I think the worst thing about them is finding ignition parts.

[@johnscustomsaws]

@@Junkyardmethod yes... I have heard that can be a nightmare if you lose ignition so fingers crossed

[@BC12valve]

So did you get this saw done? Haven't seen any videos on the finished product.

[@mackenziesibley7025]

Is there anywhere that reproduces the 2100 cranks ide really like to run one in my 395 build

[@Aaron_A_Lynch]

Gonna be a beast🤙🏻🪓😎

[@Xkekeskfndsmw]

I had one of those years ago. The tanks leaked into each other. Is there any solution for this?

[@jonathanlloyd8791]

Hi would just a max flow and bark box improve a saws performance without porting it?

[@johnscustomsaws]

Yes... the barkbox has been proven to add .5hp or more I believe and that was on a dyno... you should add a little fuel to the carb if you run a barkbox to get the full potential out of it... I add a 1/8 turn to the L setting myself... also removing the baffle in the muffler helps... the maxflow is not as much for performance in my eyes as it is just a WAY better filter and keeps debris out if the intake and cylinder... debris ingestion is a saw killer man!! I wont even build a saw without upgrading the filter honestly... also a modded muffler helps the saw run cooler 😉👍

[@jonathanlloyd8791]

@@johnscustomsaws thanks man 👍

[@SOHN32]

I think he wants a Hot pink saw . Lol

[@FishFind3000]

Have you ported or modded a ms362c-m?

[@johnscustomsaws]

Oh yes... a few in fact.. they aren't my most popular build but I still see some here and there... 362CM was the giveaway saw on Instagram actually... was a ripper... problem is 462 isn't much heavier and lot more power and 261 is pretty ridiculous after they are built and they are so much lighter... 362 is that saw that fills a gap that isn't really there if that makes any sense at all lol

[@nicoporta8976]

I'll buy that piston off you if you wanna ship it to BC?... also looking for a manual oiler if you wanna sell the one from the scrap tank. Ive got a brand new top cover and full wrap if you'd prefer a trade.

[@rorybond1077]

Dont cut that handle lol I have a standard oem handle. plus i would trade towards the full wrap.

[@kylecromp319]

Piston rings have slop on mine im not sure what to do about that

[@johnscustomsaws]

If your ring end gap is out of tolerance with new rings you are pretty much looking at rebuilding or boring and lining I would imagine... im not sure how impossible it is to find a new top end for a 2100 but im thinking its not easy... maybe aftermarket but I really don't like using aftermarket parts... just my personal preference I guess

[@kylecromp319]

@@johnscustomsaws the after markets are kinda sketchy at best as you know

[@johnscustomsaws]

@@kylecromp319 exactly... I can see what this place in AZ says on boring and lining this one... see if it is appealing to you to save it... I have never used them so im not sure what its going to cost

Amigo soy d peru tengo problemas con la bovina existe un cable se sale para el contacto y ya no funciona como lo puedo arreglar o como puedo conseguir una bovina nueva ya k en peru ya no existe

[@NothingButChainsaws]

Why not just use a 395xp carb?

[@johnscustomsaws]

who knows man... might go that route... i have plenty of 395 carbs here so if thats the better route i wont fight to make the 3120 carb work... i have a lot of different bigger carbs i just lean towards the big 3120 to try initially

[@NothingButChainsaws]

@@johnscustomsaws I've seen a video where a guy put a 395xp on a 2100, it ran better then the factory 2100 carb.

[@waywardshed9721]

Can I have your old parts

[@davidvaneck4856]

I was offered a huge pile of cd2100 parts from a old faller in Squamish. I could only take one box. Anyhow I have parts for these saws if anyone is interested.

[@SOHN32]

Wiesco will custom make a piston if you give them spec and sizes. At lease they uses too. But don't know with all the BS excuses covid comp outs know a days.
