Stihl 066 and Stihl 088

[traktorist2222]

The 066 I completely repaired in December 2007 / January 2008. I put in new crank bearings, new piston / cylinder, new gaskets, decompression valve, top cover, handle bar, bar, chain, oil tank cap and it runs very well.
The 088 also got a new bar and a new chain because the old one was abused.

It already looks more saw-like:

And that was the reason for the damaged engine, a not well fixed piston spring:

Nice job that 066 should be just like new now.

Ouch. That hurts. All over a simple little error.

Ouch. That hurts. All over a simple little error.

Yup, if one ever thought about reusing those silly little clips that cures it right there!!




Nice job traktorist in reviving a beast back to life.

Nice work, now please do us all a favor and get rid of that air filter setup and go with the HD on the 066!

I'll even send you the HD outer air filter cover, just pay the shipping.


Man, I hate those old filters!

 

[Lakeside53]

I'll send you a "like new" filter with NEW prefilter!

 

[traktorist2222]

I don't think shipping the filters to Germany is rational... But I will look what it costs here and maybe I get it such a filter set-up.

 

[Lakeside53]

uh oh.. didn't check the county! But I bet it's a lot cheaper for to take us up on the offers. A used filter base from the USA and you'll have everything.

 

[sILlogger]

while we are on the subject..does the 660 style filter base, masterswitch and filter cover fit on the 066's?

 

[Lakeside53]

Yes, but the top cover shroud won't "match" unless it's also replaced.
