Hi everyone, I've acquired an old 162se that I'd like to rebuild. I've done a pressure/vac test and it's loosing pressure on vacuum, it'll only pump out to 10 of whatever units vac is measured in and it quickly drops to 5, pressure test was ok! (I assume seals are bevelled one way?) All the major parts seem ok, cylinder, piston, crank has no play, oils fine, exhaust is ok, handle, plastics, brake assembly all ok. It has a leaking fuel tank someone has tried unsuccessfully to repair with some sort of rubber solution, so it seems a good contender to strip and rebuild for minimal outlay. I've found some parts lists on husqvarna website dating from '73-'79 but don't know what year mine is? Attached is a pic of the serial number so if someone could shed some light so I can get the correct parts I'd be grateful! Also I realise OEM parts are best but probably not available on a saw this old. Any advice on quality parts (probably bearings and oil seals most important) would be appreciated as would any advice generally as I've not done a full rebuild before! (P.s. I'm UK based!)
