More 371xp testing, will it pull in hardwood?

[@sagebrushhillbilly4655]

I don't always comment here, I just have to mention how refreshing it is to the soul to come to a chainsaw channel free of drama and full of positivity and mentions of others with the same qualities. Donny Walker is pure gold. I have done business with BeeRay farms. Their products and service are outstanding. You got a good tribe Tinman. Coincidence? I think not.

[@FarmlessFarmer-xs1he]

I’ve been gone for a bit but I’m finally back and definitely been enjoying your new videos and getting ready to launch my channel. So happy for you and your family completion! Also thanks for no drama and cleaner language.

[@OzarkMidwest]

Hats off to ya , that saw runs good!! Awesome video Tinman!!!

[@tinmanssaws]

Morning buddy thanks

[@yxzify]

Hey Tinman! Thanks for helping me out with my questions at the end of your previous vid! 😘 The 372 is back in business with new rings. Root cause was my poor chamfering.

[@tinmanssaws]

That's great to hear!! Thanks for taking the time to email me your question!!

[@jakethomasgarner1886]

Time for a crazy 10-10 build that you’ve wanted to do for a while!

[@OzarkMidwest]

Happy Father's day friend ✊️

[@griffinphilemon5083]

Hi tinman, I found scrounging through some old forums online for my 268 which had a hard time restarting after hot and it was the spark plug. My gap was at .030" cold, so when hot it was probably even bigger, I set it back to .020" and my problem was fixed. Your plug was probably the culprit for that hot start issue, I know I overlooked it for a long time. Awesome running saw! Take care and take it easy.

[@rugerfarming5387]

Seems like a solid saw to me without running it. Good job Tinman. Thanks for the videos. Take care of that little one.

[@mikecook2714]

I can't wait to hear your opinion of that sumara bar on this saw!

[@thebradleysoncatbirdhill6849]

I would guess there is a legion of guys who will be drooling over that saw right now!💪

[@paulmcreynolds1774]

Great video Tinman. That's a fine running saw. Can't wait to see the other mods you do to it.

[@wayneanderson991]

I like the Tsumura bars, nice and light. My experience with the warble sound your hearing is an exhaust that is a little to open for the displacement of the saw. Maybe try a 52mm big bore in a future build with the same pipe.

[@mathieupatry341]

Really nice Tercel in the background, had one in black when i was younger !

[@tdawg8605]

Lol, I'd just like to get that darn 272xp saw running 😂. It's a puzzle. That 371xp of yours us a gem. I can only wish my saws worrble like that one. 😂😂😂 TC Mahalo Tinman 🤙🤙🤙

[@frankz1125]

Whats wrong with your 272? I like those saws. Probably my favorite. Cheers

[@tdawg8605]

@@frankz1125 I've built two now. Love this saw and my 268xp. My 55's have had top end rebuilds. My first 272xp went off without a hitch, starts, runs and cuts like crazy. The second 272xp I built (all new) crank, bearings, seals, top end, carb, muffler, clutch, mag, av mounts, starter switch, coil, recoil, chain break, fuel line and filter and all the rubber bits, all new. Timed out at 148 intake duration, 104 exhaust, 23° blow down and it just fires and dies after about ten pulls. Changed entire top end to a 50mm bore with different (All OEM) carb, manifold and gaskets, even change the crank seals, suspecting I might have prolapsed one. No change fires and blah dies instantly. Very frustrating, checked carb settings, played with them, rich to lean, high and low, nothing. Tons of spark, nice and blue, fuel is pumping up, good compression. I'm thinking the new crank and/or mag maybe out of phase and it's not firing in sequence. Never had an issue like this before. It's a puzzle. Pressure tested carb and crank. Holds pressure with no loss. On the bright side I'm getting a workout pulling on it...Iol. Almost ready to either shelf it or order new NWP crank and break it down again. I just can think of anything else. Maybe to short on the intake duration at 148°. Maybe I'll lower it and bring it up to around 154°. But it should start, I think at 148°, maybe not. The game continues.

[@frankz1125]

@@tdawg8605 interesting. Might be correct with the crank. Seems like you got everything else tested. Keep at it. Cheers

[@michaelschaf]

Thanks for that advice.

[@mswcmms9956]

Hello tinman from Ireland, what are the advantages/pitfalls of raising the upper transfers?

[@DaveyBlue32]

I was crazy impressed with those Tsumura bar’s and I’m going to have a very hard time spending the additional coin on the Sugi bar in the future… my Tsumura might have been 1/2 as much cash and it’s running right with the Sugihara on it’s quality of construction and durability tip!!! I’m a massive fan now!!! This is such a fun build because I’ve never been as brave as you were!!! LMFFAO!!! Be super fun with the 20” bar and just blasting the smaller diameter stuff!!! Love the way your exhaust pipe sounds!!!

[@tinmanssaws]

Saw runs better then I expected fir sure.

[@jeffc9354]

Great video tinman

[@austindenotter19]

We knew this 30 years ago that it would handle Oak hardwood logs very well.

[@ToddAdams1234]

Just put on a pair of “West Coast Saw” dogs on the saw. Donny Walker has them in stock. You still need to tighten up the chain.

[@tyedwinnell950]

[@aaronpowell4885]

Sometimes we gotta take a step outside of our comfort zone. That one turned out great! Look forward to your opinion of archer chain. I've heard both, people that love it and that avoid it.

[@230e4]

The Tsumura bars hold up well and their lighter than the Sugihara bars. You seem to be enjoying the 371/372s. 👍

[@timberray9572]

I just spent the day cutting oak with a softwood chain, haha. I almost never cut hardwood so my rakers are kept lower than recommended.

I like to check the colour of the spark plug every once in a while. A pop up will make a good difference. Cheers

[@chriskennedy7262]

sounding good tinman :)

[@classicfordmuscle]

That saw runs nice since you filed up the chain, not grabby.

[@aussiehardwood6196]

Man...Ive got a few Huskies, Solo's, Dollies, Stihls, Echo's and Makita's and the ONLY saws I can get to start cold on one pull is a 23cc Japanese top handle under the Makita brand. The rest take a few to 'pop' and a few more to kick off in fast idle. I'd love a one pull worksaw when cold. Obviously they all restart warm with one pull.

Hey man I’m building a 266xp and I cut out the skirt underneath the transfers. I’m thinking of putting a 268 open port piston in it I think it will feed the transfers better. Have u ever done that.

[@tinmanssaws]

I usually use 268 pistons in Mt 266 builds

[@dn0682]

Runs extremely well, is this ported apart from pipe?. Good work

[@tinmanssaws]

Yeah its ported
