Are all those saws 50 cc or is the pinkway more displacement ? , it seemed to me the pinkway was just the fastest and smoothest running one even right out of the box , which one did you like the best ?
I converted all my clones to side chain adjust.... I also converted to paper filters. I even converted one to 3/8 x.50 chain To match my 460 rancher, But I converted it back because it didn't seem to cut as well... I love my clone saws, and I just picked up a Pinkway so it was nice to see yours. The plastic worm gear oiler was incorrect on my Pinkway and I had to replace it, the flange was too thin and allowed a aprox. 1/8 " gap for sawdust to get into the oiler. I'm noticing some of the replacement parts on Amazon etc. aren't up to spec for all saws, so be warned It's kind of a crap shoot. Love your saw content, thanks for the videos.
WOW! Boy did that help out that WEMARS, Pinkway, and the Yizbao.. They are really cutting even better than before. They sounded more similar now to 4 strokes when cutting.
Ive wandered about these. I love Echo CS series. But the old Homelite XL12 and Super XL12 is what gets used for felling. They're old , and do viberate more than newer saws , but they just work , and continue to work.
Havensal1, please tell us if the cylinders of these Chinese engines look like they are Nikasil silicon carbide plated? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nikasil I don't think they are. I think that's why the manufacturers says to run them at 25:1 instead of 40 or 50:1. I run all my saws at 20:1 so they last longer.
@@JohnSmith-1234 I believe they are plated. With what, I couldn't tell you. Every 2 stroke I own runs on 40:1. Even the old 16:1 saws. Modern oils are way better than what we ran back then. If I were running them every day it might be more of an issues, but for a weekend warrior like myself they will outlast me.
@@Havensal1, thanks for the reply. If not Nikasil plating then maybe the Chinese use hard chrome lined cylinders but I think some Chinese saws might have just plain steel cylinder liners. I remember the saws of 50 years ago running at 16:1 too. I figured maybe the EPA said that saws had to run at 40 or 50 to 1 to reduce air pollution but maybe with the better oil and cylinder lining 40 to 1 is all you need like your said. I have and old Poulan 16" saw I bought in 1995 I have always run at 20:1 that I have abused running it real hard cutting some really big hardwood trees but it still has good compression while my friend's newer Poulan saw that he ran at 40:1 has very little compression left. I really appreciate your Chinese saw videos since I am considering getting one. I think I had better get one that spare parts are readily available for. I would like to find a cheap Chinese copy of a Husqvarna or a Stihl so I could be sure to get parts for it. The Craftsman saws they sell at Lowes are made in China but they are way over priced costing nearly as much as a Poulan. The Hyper Tough 16-inch Gas Chainsaws they stock at Walmart stores are made in China but overpriced too. Maybe I can get lucky with a Chinese saw from Ebay.
Good series of videos. Thanks 👍🏻
Glad u done these videos on these zenoah clone saws please continue on with more vids on these I have a supmix 6200 version of these saws runs good
I'd like to get a Coocheer to compare as well. Maybe I'll do a $150 saw shootout and get the Supmix and Neotec.

@@Hambonebodi As best I can measure, they are all 54CC. I can't really tell why, but I like the Yizbao a little more than the others.

I found a couple different side adjust tensioners online for $6-$8. They seem to work well on these. They are all side adjust now.
Could you be so kind as to tell me what to get? I can see the hole for the side adjust, just need to know what to get.
@@MrBooMY3 These are the two that worked for me. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0C9SQNQW2/ www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09TB32FKG
@@Havensal1just ordered 2 tyvm!
The Pinkway seems to me like it would be the better saw of the three
