Portland 42cc 18” chainsaw review and mods

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Portland 42cc chainsaw gets my honest review I didn’t get this saw for free I paid with my own money. Great saw let’s see how long it lasts!
The only mods I made were a full comp chain and muffler mod. I did just recently buy a gb titanium bar so well put the puppy to work soon.

    It lloks exactly like a pink way saw i bought my dad a couple weeks ago. Hes 75 and needed something easy to start and so far he loves it. I did pull the muffler and kinda gutted the inside and it seems to have a little more torque. I put a 20 inch husky bar on it that came withy 550xp.

    Love that saw! Bought one last year! Harbor freight! I like it better than my 180 Stihl.

    That’s funny because my buddy has a stihl 180 and this saw will run laps around it!

    The red one might have a small air leak . It definitely sounds like it needs a timing adjustment. People underestimate those cheap saws but i think they are great for the money

    And as far as the leak goes I thought the same it sounds like it but it’s running a lot better.

    @@brainiacproductions357 I've bought 7 saws this year as it's my newest hobby and I've been having the clone saws ported and it's a blast. I'm in this semi truck most the time but when I do get to be home it's all I do lol. I have a 550xp mark2 that's a screamer but this old man built my farmer tech 660 and it's an absolute beast. I have a few top handle saws being done at the moment and a ns872i that just got to the house in the mail but haven't been home yet to see it. It's cool you did the video tho I watch a lot of this stuff while out here on the road. Thanks for sure

    Thank I’ve started “collecting” saws too. I’ve been thinking about getting a holzforma 372 and a couple more too add to the collection. How’s the 660 holding up?

    @@brainiacproductions357 I think the 660 is the best. It's heavy but it's fun and so far no problems. I have an 8 pin sprocket on it at the moment with 24 inch bar and c83 chain. I'm no professional logger but for what I do I couldn't be happier. And if it blows up I could get another and still be way cheaper than a new 661. Yeah I can't say enough good about it actually. I just ordered pop up pistons for all my saws and also caber rings. I'm in this truck most the time and when I see stuff on KZread that looks like performance stuff for them I order it and have it at home when I finally get there lol. I help my dad on his farm a little bit mostly my saws are just my toys for real tho.

    When you say muffler modifications what did you do exactly? I almost purchased this saw but wanted to check KZread for reviews first. Thank you for the video.

    I just drilled a hole in the top baffle under the deflector and the opened it up. Changed the note sounds pretty nasty if ima be honest. Only problem is it’s sounds very modded
