Hadn't thought about running the carb dry. Good idea.

On running the carb dry, it can be very suprising how long a chainsaw can run on the amount of fuel in 4-6" of 1/8" fuel line and in the fuel chamber of the diaphragm.... i have had smaller displacement saws run almost 5 min idling on that fuel alone....now my fuel hungry 044 and 661, those tend to run dry in under a minute at idle...LOL
If all goes well, i will have some video of the stock(ish, havent checked squish height with the aftermarket piston, just know with the stock gasket it turns over and runs....LOL) ms362 monday night, going to the wood pile to run this saw and a customers ms271... there may or may not be a video of a race involved...LOL we shall see....
