       I never paid attention or over looked that in the past. I had 4
       runners even at one time.  2 woods ported, 1 piped race ported,
       1 stock.

       Do you think that I am close in my theory in a lean running
       condition that caused the ring to stick and and catch the
       exhaust port. Also can you pressure/vacuum test the crankcase
       with the piston out of the saw.

       Yes if you seal off the intake, exhaust, & the pressure relief
       valve.

       Thanks I was thinking you could. Just wanted to here from
       someone else before I wasted any time. If it leaks through the
       decomp then the decomp is bad.

       Yes, and a tight spark plug too.

       Thanks 660. Cut my piston does have the 2 grooves above the top
       ring.

       The decomp is leaking won't hold vac or pressure.  It is also
       leaking on the flywheel side where the generator would mount in
       the top threaded hole. If if where your guys saw would you put
       new seals, impulse, intake manifold on the saw or just leave it.
