      Buddy, this was so fun and the muffler mod is a great thing for easy returns for sure. Made me a believer getting to do these tests myself! Thanks for watching and I am totally impressed by the ported saws manners. Too good. Start with 2 pulls from cold?!?!??! NICE!

    Am urmarit cu interes deosebit felul cum ai lucrat cu echo cs 310.,o adevărată demonstratie de maiestru.
    Sunt posesor al unei echo cs 310es,si aș vrea să știu care este diferența dintre cele două. (Echo cs 310 si 310es).,dacă se potrivesc carburatorul intre ele.
    Ar mai fi modul cum aș putea face muffler mod la motorul meu.

    👍👍 you could lean it out a bit. Going to get cold soon, so not that big of a deal. I’ve leaned them out a lot and they seem limited to around 12.5. Always a dance with limiters for best tune.
    With muffler mods on these, in my experience, the harder and hotter you run them the better they run!

    Echo CS-501P or Husqvarna 545 are going to be $500-600 chainsaws (depending on the bar/chain you buy with it). The Echo CS-310 is $220 with a 16" Echo bar & chain. To be fair to the person thinking about buying their first chainsaw - how much money is invested into your CS-310? I only ask, because I don't know.

    • @oakiewoodsman
      @oakiewoodsman  Год назад +1

      cs-310 are about $220 new right now from HD I believe and can be had for really inexpensively used off of FB marketplace or eBay. I purchased mine about 5 years ago for around $200 I believe. A muffler mod can be pretty much free or very inexpensive. Some scrap pipe and some black High Temp bbq paint if you can braze. Some ppl just punch holes, drill and grind. These two mufflers were done very well and certainly both contribute to the saws running so well. A 545 is about $649 here locally and a 501P is a little less but the prices on Echo have been coming up a bit here recently.

    • @oakiewoodsman
      @oakiewoodsman  Год назад +2

      The ported saw was a gift to the channel so I am unaware of the exact modifications done to it. I can tell you this, the builder sure worked magic on this little saw. Big gains can certainly be had with an appropriate muffler mod as well. My Echo CS-620P is currently in a different shop getting port work done on it so bring that saw to life as well. Thanks for watching, commenting and being here and hope to see you around!

Most recently I spent 25 hours porting a set of 781 big block heads (they had core shift), but I know myself well enough that if anything went wrong on a tedious chainsaw jug, I would be to angry. I’ll leave it to the guys that know what they’re doing and why.

    • @oakiewoodsman

      Thank you for the feedback! I find that these little saws with limited coils and popping due to who knows what are very hard to tune by ear. I have got in the habbit of tuning for pull in the cut. Also, IMHO I think ECHO saws are the most difficult to tune than anything else I have had my hands on. My 660 ported Clone is SIMPLE to tune. The 4 stroke is clear and apparent. Thank you again!

    Amazing how much of a difference a muffler can make. I rebuilt a Husky 141 LE (low emission) for a guy at work. Got the saw back together and it would not rev. Would barely idle. Try to rev and stall. I checked everything. Even ripped it all back down again and rechecked all my work. Vacuum tested, pressure tested. Had the carb apart a total of three times. Know what the problem was? The muffler. I bought a cheap hollow can off ebay and low and behold it runs. Runs awesome! Turns out the stock muffler on that "Low Emissions" EPA saw was absolutely choking it off so it would barely run and couldn't rev.
