You do a great job relating information, I've been a diesel technician for 15 years and 2 strokes have always been like wizardry to me lol. I've been collecting saws for about 2 years now and tinkering here and there figuring out what makes them tick but your videos have definitely shortened the learning curve for me and gotten me excited to start building and porting saws.

You are exactly right about blowdown, a properly tuned 2 stroke the exiting exhaust actually assists in bringing the new fuel/air in and getting all the exhaust out. Then there is the exhaust rebound you discussed which shouldn’t be confused with back pressure. It’s simply a pressure wave. It does push a bit of the excessive new fuel back into the cylinder after the intake is closed but just as the exhaust is closing, to increase the compression and put more air and fuel into the cylinder to fire. This is why tuned race saws have a cone shaped end before the exhaust exits, this increases the duration of the pressure wave maximizing that extra fuel air stuffing. It’s very much like adding a turbo or super charger. Longer blowdown quite simply allows the explosion to put more power into the crank. That fuel efficiency. There are obviously limits as you have found.

Bro, thanks for helping me understand timing on a 2 stroke. I've been only into motorized bikes for a couple of years now and I still knew nothing about what was going on. I was just putting kits together and riding like that. But I have enough engines here where I don't have buy new and just fix these. Your channel is helping me achieve that goal. Very, very , informative. Absolutely great work. Thanks. Build break and fix channel does that cutaway too. Great work. I'm getting better at putting my engines back together again.

TIP: Take a look at the flywheel, bring the saw to TDC, Just above the coil, on the case, , , ,there might be a timing mark. There also might be one on the flywheel. Results may vary, , , I am working with an OLD type 1, stihl028 (it uses 4mm cap screws, not T-27s. Measure the distance between the marks, and the circumference of the flywheel, , ,,calculate the timing advance (I am calculating 12 degrees advance). I don't know if there is an electronic advance in addition to that (from the coil). As Always, , ,Thanks for the presentation, , ,I have learned so much.

I wish i had u as a small engine teacher in school. This makes sense , we werent allowed to touch 2 strokes. I just figured we had valves someplace hidden. I had a 034 that was hard kicking and destroyed pawls. Then my bearing seized and spun in the case. I wish i tore it apart when it was dead, instead of donating it for parts. This is absolutely fascinating

@dubbssawshop Жыл бұрын
Shine a flashlight thru the exhaust port into the cylinder, then look thru the spark plug hole to see when the piston cracks the transfer ports, then just read the timing wheel. You can also use a endoscope thru the plug hole and look for the same thing, whatever the difference in degrees between exhaust opening and transfer opening is, is your BD # in degrees.

I'm a newbie wanting to do a port polish job on small 2 stroke bike engine....Would it be safe & add power to bevel/round the bottom lip of the intake port without lowering it no more than a 1/2 mm for better intake air flow, then bevel the bottom of the intake side of piston skirt, bevel the top lip of the exhaust port without raising it no more than 1/2mm. Then polish the exhaust port and polish the open transfer ports or would you want to leave the transfer ports roughed up for more turbulent airflow like the intake?
@jacobhein43192 жыл бұрын
Short answer, lowering your intake and raising your exhaust could possibly increase power as long as you dont go too far. Its hard to say what would be too far without a timing wheel.
