Check out that fancy new case hardened con rod >>Where's the big end bearing ?
The Stihl 090 CHAIN SAW has exactly the same con rod style, open in the center..Wonder where DA got the idea ?
CHAIN SAW technology ? Still a bad word here ?






A pressure tap anywhere in the case with a line to the back cover of the carb works just fine, been doing it for 18 years on most Zenoah engines....Makes for a more secure pulse....IF the reeds seal well.....Not a problem on a piston port engine....
Kinda hard to see what difference a change in the pulse passage would make, unless it was just borderline before...Like the phenolic carb rotators from brand "H"...
Where can I "check this out" In your opinion has the weak rod/bearing issue been fixed, or is there still some question about the big end bearing. ??
I"d love to buy the DA50, but not until the probs are all ironed out
