Default Difference OS 25FX and OS MAX 25F SR

Can anyone tell me about the OS MAX 25F SR and how it compares to the OS 25FX.

Thanks

Hi!
Not much difference really...... the old .25FSR is at least 20 years old and has a lapped iron piston running in a steel cylinder (might be that some newer FSR:s were made with ABC piston /cylinders) versus the new OS .25 that has an ABN piston/cylinder.
Carb works the same with a highspeed needle and idleneedle ...like every other carb on the market (except Webra Dynamix) and both have two ballbearings....power is about the same.

Regards!

Thanks.

Would I be able to get a mufler extension (1/2") for the older engine? Is the screw spacing etc the same for the muffler bolt-up?

Dear boss 351

Do you have the 25 FSR?

If so could you please confirm the bore and stroke of the engine as I am currently looking for a replacement piston+cylinder for mine (around 20 yrs old engine). 'Am exploring the possibility of installing a 25 FX or TT 25 Pro cylinder and piston.

Many Thanks

I have this information from someone that does have one:

Displacement: 0.248 cu. in.
Bore: 0.708 in.
Stroke: 0.630 in.

Hope it is correct and can help!

Thanks Adam -

Sure does help. It appears that OS has not changed the P+C spec when they discontinued the FSR series and started the FX series. Like I mentioned earlier - I am looking for a replacement P+C for my 25 FSR. You have helped me narrow down my search.

Many thanks again

I know it's a 13 year old post, but have you any success using FX piston/cylinder for the FSR? Port locations and sizes are the same?
