Ported Stihl ms461 first cuts and some carb tuning info

First cuts with a ported stihl ms461.

[@justinweaver8787]

I love ur break in procedure an ur sense to check an recheck piston condition. Saw already sounds strong and healthy I believe it will be a hard cutter sir thank you very much for all you do. I'm new to the channel but not saws I log every day and do some tree work for friends and family in my free time I normally have a saw n my hand 7days a week. U have the correct way of saw break in an inspection.hope all is well with you and your family.stay safe.

[@JVR-gd7zw]

461 is my favorite saw. Woods port, opened exhaust, and a maxflow. Then let her eat.

[@SonOfLiberty1984]

On a side note, I saw you dog into the log pretty hard and she never bogged. That's some nice work... and also speaks to your ability to sharpen a chain and set your rakers appropriately. I an still trying to dial in my sharpening... along with... well... literally everything else lol!

[@tinmanssaws]

Thanks, thats all part of my testing. Every saw likes a little different chain/raker combo. And I like to put some load on the saws as I break them in to see how much torque I have.

[@justinweaver8787]

Good eye I saw it to a N heard nothing but get it get it get it from the Saw lol.

[@brysonjones9858]

Holy go juice. That was amazing. Well done first off.. I have never seen a greater demonstration of tuning and cutting, it was crystal clear. Man I am in awww on how fantastic it sounds. Cheers from NorCal

[@danielsmith8659]

This video … needs to be the pinnacle of explaining a rev limited stihl saw.

[@roncorbin1500]

Well that's proof in the pudding, nice turned out great,

[@daninuesca3801]

Mee tooo!

[@5150powder]

Appreciate your what your doin with your channel tinman. Only my second watch of your stuff but straight away im like here's a guy I can learn from. I love my 461. Everytime I run it. Big smile. Progressively modding it and it is getting good!

[@dillonjolly7155]

Nice saw brother and love the hat I live in the city of bridges

[@tinmanssaws]

Saskatoon.????

[@jakereape4095]

That’s a mean saw brother good job

[@FlukeTog]

Love this saw. Keep going TinMan thanks for all your videos.

[@billybowen3023]

Good one, information rich and easily understood!👍thank you

[@Comp670]

Wow that runs good. Would love to have you port my 461. Its my favorite saw, I truely think it cuts better then my 661. Could not imagine how it would cut ported.

[@tinmanssaws]

That 461 of mine runs really well for sure ! Its one of the newer saws that I really like!

[@TheFiveyoungs]

It was a good illustration and explanation! Thanks

[@farmlessfarmer5729]

Sounds very healthy in the wood!

[@HemiOrange]

Just found your channel. Great videos so far, agree 100% on break in!

[@michaelwhiteoldtimer7648]

SOUNDS GOOD CUTS GOOD LOOKS LIKE A WINNER, BUT I MIGHT HAVE TO TRY IT OUT IN SOME WOOD HERE

[@MegaDirtyberty]

Sounds good, I never thought to take the cylinder back off once you have run it. May have to start doing that.

[@tinmanssaws]

Just peek through the exhaust and sparkplug hole is usually good enough

[@MegaDirtyberty]

@@tinmanssaws I have a bore scope so I may use that too.

[@erikdesson1558]

Awesome 👍 I have a ms 461, think I put a lot hours on it.

[@daninuesca3801]

ALOHA from Maui!Nice job! New sub!🤙🏾

[@tinmanssaws]

Welcome!! I think you're my first from Hawaii.

[@matthewscantland85]

That thing look like it pulls hard as hell. 😳

[@307j.o.a.t9]

Saw sounds amd cuts good. Like the detail and explanation you go into on tuning and break in. Thanks!!

[@larryreno8293]

Thank you for explaining “4 strokin “. So it just running fat at full throttle under load?? I’ve hear that sound but wasn’t sure what the cause was. Great video, awesome saw.

[@tinmanssaws]

Yes "4 stroking is the sound of a rich saw, its overfueling at wot" That saw is rich for break in so you will.hear it 4 stroking here and there in the cut.

[@JourneyNorthAK]

Good video..clean saw.

[@ianritchie126]

Sounding good

[@garytrapper2064]

New sub heard about you from iron hores. Love the videos. I'm from B.C.

[@tinmanssaws]

Welcome Gary

[@mikehellekson]

Nice job!!

[@tedjohn441]

Great Job!! Was that a trashed saw when you started working on it? I watched your other video's and don't remember how you got that saw.

[@tinmanssaws]

Yes clutch side bearing let go, clutch was also blown up. I'm going to do a video on the clutch soon I think .

[@greggschultz5768]

I agree with your process in every way! If you could accept a bit of advice from an old guy, you look so much happier with a Stihl in your hands rather than them nasty Huskys. 😀

[@tinmanssaws]

Haha thats funny, I run and own both.

[@david92867]

Nice Job!

[@jeremydoblinger3609]

Dang she cuts nice af

[@pm270100]

good vid well done

[@itiswhatitis3839]

You should run maxflow

[@antoniosolari1013]

If I take 108 octane race fuel and mix with 2 stroke oil 40:1 Will it be too high of octane for chainsaws ?

[@tjlovesrachel]

And1 chainsaw shorts ... gotta get me a pair

[@doggie946]

Tinman-another great video...are new saws typically broken in by the manufacturer? Do you recommend 40:1 mix if 50:1 normally used for first few tankfuls?

[@tinmanssaws]

New saws need to be broken in by the purchaser, the manufacturer will typically only test fire the saw before its shipped. I run everything at 45:1

[@SonOfLiberty1984]

Your demonstrations are absolutely outstanding to a guy just starting to learn this stuff. The 4 stroking demo is crystal clear here. It was easy to see you lift the saw and immediately hear the difference. How do you decide when a saw is broken in? Do you simply have a static time interval system set or are you looking for signals of how the saw is running before you open er up?

[@tinmanssaws]

I'll do a video on that in the future.

[@aldredske6197]

Hi Tinman!!😀😀 Nice job buddy!!😀👍👍 I would have a hard time putting her down!!😀😀👍👍 Take care my friend!!😀😀❤ Logger Al

[@edwingroening5087]

Nicely done. Now I want a 461 but first I should turn my 034av into an 036 and try my porting skills. Anyone know what numbers I should be looking for?

[@tinmanssaws]

Put a timing wheel on it and post the number here or better yet make a video.

[@kellyowensby]

i have a stihl 038 super av is it a good saw and could you give me you thoughts on it i know its older saw....thanks

[@pm270100]

all lube is in mix so tune must be right

[@constructionduru5195]

Tinman you got any of those 200's left from a few months ago

[@tinmanssaws]

Yes i have 2 or 3 but they are spoken for.

[@constructionduru5195]

@@tinmanssaws damn ok well if you run across any others I'd be interested in one.

[@jasonturney2800]

Hey tinman got a question about porting a husky 460 looking for your input

[@tinmanssaws]

My email is on my about page on my channel. Send me one I'd love to help ya!
