Partner 540 partner 5500

Was just looking for weight specs and come across this link.
(HTM) http://outdoor-power-equipment.net/chainsaw-gas/partner/540/
If memory is right partner 540 was open port and partner 5500
was closed port like its cousin poulan pro 325.
I think Mark had a 5500 and 540 shipped in from overseas to add
to his saw collection.

I don't think I have seen a open port on a 5500/540 yet.
All piston ported/closed port. But they have cuts in case for
open ports, but not in gasket and cylinder.
First 5000 and 500 was open ports. Last 500 was piston ported as
well as 5000.
A bit confusing about the cuts in case for transfers...

The open port 5000 with Ignitron sticker I had with the blue
type coil not black like the later ones was one of my strongest
runners.

According to IPLs the P540 share the 46mm open port top end with
the Husky 55, as do the P543.

Even though your IPL for 540 shows closed port pic. Run the
part number and see for yourself. ;)
That part number at top of IPL comes back to OPEN port just like
the husqvarna 46mm top ends. 503609102
(HTM) http://www.amazon.com/Cylinder-Husqvarna-503609102-503609108-503609172/dp/B005JZQ8WU
Even the piston number 503608101 to the husky 55 46mm piston.

Is that all you got? You can't be seriously telling me you
rather trust these numbers you find on internet sales sites than
the knowledge, info and saws we have on shelf!
You can't use a non ported piston in a cylinder meant to use
ported pistons. Transference won't work! Nothing can come up
from case.
You cant put a 44 piston in a 444, you can't put a 55 in a 254
or 2054/2055.
If it is finger ported you might get away with lost performance
but closed port cylinders will not run unless piston is ported!
Regarding this:
(HTM) http://www.sawagain.com/jonsered-2054-new-oem-piston-ring-assembly-503608101/
This guy is selling a 55 piston as 2054 piston. The poor bastard
buying it will need a ported piston.
They have same number but in two seperate brands. It is not same
piston used in them!
